How to set up child filters to automatically clear when the parent filter changes by default?

Q&A

Hi everyone,
I’m trying to configure a set of hierarchical filters where selecting a value in the parent filter automatically resets or clears the child filter values.

Right now, when I change the parent filter, any previously selected child filter values remain applied, which leads to inconsistent or invalid results.

I have a parent filter called “Client” and a child filter called “Property Group”, configured to show only relevant values. However, when I change the parent filter (Client), the child filter (Property Group) does not automatically reset, which results in the visuals showing no data.

I’m looking for a way-either through native settings, scripting, or a recommended best practice-to ensure that child filters are cleared by default whenever the parent filter changes.
Has anyone implemented this behaviour successfully, or is there a built-in option I might be missing?

Thanks in advance for any guidance!

Hi @mahesh_dalvi

Welcome to the Quick community!

Quick currently does not have a configurable option to automatically clear selections in a dependent (child) multi-select filter when the parent filter value changes. A common workaround is to manually reset the child filter by clicking the reset or clear button after updating the parent filter.

I will mark this as a feature request to promote visibility to the support team.
