Description: It would be highly beneficial to have the option to create filters where the display label is different from the actual value used in the query. This feature would allow for more user-friendly and understandable filter options, especially when dealing with technical or coded values that are not immediately intuitive for all users.
Use Case: For example, if I have a filter for "Product ID" but want to display the corresponding "Product Name" as the label in the filter dropdown, this functionality would make the filter much more readable and user-friendly. Users would be able to select products by name, while the underlying queries would still use the product ID values.
Benefits:
- Improved Readability: Makes filters more intuitive and easier to understand, especially for non-technical users.
- Enhanced User Experience: Allows for a cleaner and more user-friendly interface, reducing confusion and improving the overall user experience.
- Increased Flexibility: Provides more flexibility in how data is presented and interacted with, accommodating a wider range of use cases and user needs.
Implementation Considerations:
- The ability to define display labels and corresponding values in the filter configuration settings.
- Support for both simple mappings (e.g., name to ID) and more complex scenarios (e.g., concatenated strings or formatted values).
- Ensuring that this feature integrates seamlessly with existing functionalities and does not require extensive technical knowledge to configure.
