Can you pass context to and between user filters in a record?

Hi all,

I was wondering if it's possible to provide context to and between user filters in a record? So if the user enters a value somewhere on the interface, can this value then be used to update a record filter? Like to update the list of options that are available? And is it possible to change the list of options in a filter based on what's been entered in another?

Looking at the documentation I don't think you can, but I just wanted to double check.

Thanks!

    At this time it's not possible to pass context between user filters. The closest thing you can do is use a custom dropdown that would allow you to pass the result from one dropdown to another: docs.appian.com/.../recipe-configure-cascading-dropdowns.html

      Thanks Peter, and I take it there's no way to pass context to these filters at all at the moment then, right?
