Environment

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Log in to SAC
  2. Open the affected classic story
  3. Navigate to File --> Convert to Optimized Design Experience --> Convert + Save As
  4. Provide the name --> Save
  5. Open the converted story in view mode

Notice: The hyperlink is not working and getting warning "Neither hyperlink nor filters are available when the selected dimension does not support filtering."

Cause

• In Classic Story: Hyperlinks with dimension filters are permitted when no dimensions exist in the chart, and the hyperlink will drop the filter if it cannot be created.  
• In Optimized Story: Hyperlinks with dimension filters are restricted if the dimension filter cannot be created.  

Resolution

Manually turn off the "Apply Selected Dimension As Filter" setting.

  • Turn off the setting in the Classic Story mode to prevent the issue.  
  • If the story migration is already completed, disable the setting in the Optimized Story mode.
