Using the Splunk Web Framework Toolkit, how do you update the window URL token value with JS?

Hello,

In my dashboard, I added many dropdownviews with JS and they are interacting with each other.

Now, I want to add the value selected in the Window's URL for the user to stay in this state when he will refresh the browser page.

So I tried :

mvc.Components.getInstance("url").set("my_key", "my_value");

which isn't working. I mean, in the mvc model, the URL token group has been edited, but it didn't display in the URL.

After some tries around, I have noticed that when one more dropdown is added manually and associated to a token, and when it changes (and so the URL), the token "my_key" is pushed in the URL! So I guess that the native dropdown does something on the "onChange" to push the key in the URL.

I've tried randomly many functions in the "url" component prototypes (encode, validate, fetch, ...) but none of them seem to work, and the documentation about this is more than light.

Can someone help me with this please ?

It would be amazing 🙂

Thanks !
