addEventListener
- addEventListener(
type: TableauEventType,
listener: EventListenerOrEventListenerObject,
options?: boolean | AddEventListenerOptions,
): voidAdds an event listener to the specified event.
async function getSelectedMarks(event) {
const marksSelected = await event.detail.getMarksAsync();

viz.addEventListener("markselectionchanged", getSelectedMarks);Parameters
- type: TableauEventType
- listener: EventListenerOrEventListenerObject
Optionaloptions: boolean | AddEventListenerOptions
Returns void
addFilter
Use this method to filter the viz before initialization. If used after initialization, it will re-render the viz. For filtering after initialization, use the other filtering methods, such as
applyFilterAsync.If you add the same filter fields using the
addFilter()method and by using the<viz-filter>element in the<tableau-viz>web component, you might experience unexpected behavior.Parameters
