Filtering issue when replacing colon/comma/ampersand with asterisk
Hi, thank you for building this great tool! I'd like to raise a query about running an export command on a Tableau dashboard view. I am using the same export command for a number of country x role name filter combinations, and it works great for role names without commas, e.g.
tabcmd export "[workbook]?Country=USA" --pdf -f [filename] --filter "Role name=Cashiers"
However, when I try to follow the instruction from within the export documentation (see below):
Note:In both formats, the filter clause cannot contain a colon (:), a comma (,) or an ampersand (&). You must replace each of these characters with an asterisk ()
...this does not appear to be interpreted correctly and the output seems not to have matched to any role name (no visualisation is displayed):
tabcmd export "[workbook]?Country=USA" --pdf -f [filename] --filter "Role name=Appraisers* Real Estate"
Whereas this is what I can see in Tableau, for context:
Thank you for any help you can provide. I tried escaping the * with , just using the comma, and switching the filter into the URL, but just can't quite figure it out.
Is this in Tableau Online? If not, can you tell me what version of Tableau Server you are using?
