The FilterGroupObject describes filters for hierarchical data. When the server supports multilevel hierarchies, the FilterGroupObject appears in the /members request and the /select requests for the pivot table, the flat table, and the drill-through view.
Refer to our guide to learn more about supporting multilevel hierarchies.
{
type: string,
value: FilterObject[] | FilterGroupObject[]
}
| Property/Type | Description |
|---|---|
| type String | The filter's type. Possible values: "and", "or". |
| value FilterObject[] | FilterGroupObject[] | Filters to apply to the data. Filters are combined using the operator specified in the type property. |
The code below demonstrates the request with the FilterGroupObject. Notice that the filter.value array contains two objects: the first one is a FilterGroupObject, and the second one is a FilterObject.

"type": "and",

"type": "or",
