3644999 - SAC GetActiveSelectedMembers() API returns empty although there are active selected members on input control.

The getActiveSelectedMembers() API returns empty, even though there are active selected members on the input control.

SAP Analytics Cloud

The script is like the following:

......

InputControl_1.getInputControlDataSource().setSelectedMember();

......

InputControl_2.getInputControlDataSource().GetActiveSelectedMembers();

......

The two input controls use the same data source.

The issue occurs because the getActiveSelectedMembers() API from InputControl_1 cannot detect changes made on InputControl_2, as the contexts of different input controls are not accessible to each other.

Add the following line of code after the existing call to setSelectedMember():

InputControl_1.getInputControlDataSource().getActiveSelectedMembers();

The getActiveSelectedMembers() API works on the same input control (InputControl_1). And when InputControl_2 calls getActiveSelectedMembers, the result is already stored.
