Rules not working for multiline string/text parameter

I have a parameter which takes in string data type and allows multivalues. The control is set as “Text field - multiline” using line break. I want to set a rule on another visualization so that it is hidden/shown based on whether this parameter includes a string like “1” etc, however when I apply this rule the visualization does not hide/show correctly. Is there something I am missing?

Hi @jihee and welcome to the QuickSight community!
Would you be able to share some screenshots of the rule you’ve set up and the behavior you’re receiving from your visual? Maybe a list of your values that can be utilized in your parameter as well to see what the field values look like?

Side note after testing out; I setup a simple example in Arena View to show the possibilities; it looks like even though you have the ability to enter multiple values (and use the ‘Contains’ option), the rules don’t seem to have functionality with multi-select parameters.

I’ve ran into a couple scenarios where this would be valuable as well so I’ll mark this as a feature request to promote visibility to the support team.

Hi @jihee,
Following up here as it’s been awhile since we last heard from you; while I’ve marked this as a feature request already, checking in to see if you had any additional questions?

If we do not hear back within the next 3 business days, I’ll close out this topic.

Thank you!
