Pass Oracle Apex 5.0 IR Filter value to item

Question

I have an interactive report that needs to pass values to items to my "Mass Edit" page. The "Mass Edit" page will then allow the user to update multiple rows. I am able to do this via tabular form, but I want to leverage Interactive Reports filter functionality.

I am trying to pass multiple filters from IR to multiple items. I have a button 'Mass Edit' that redirects to my "Mass Edit" page that has item: "Item1". When a user filters on the IR report for "DATE" and then presses the "Mass Edit" button the value from the filter is not being passed.

In the link builder for the Mass Edit Button > Set Items. I have under Name: Item1 and Value: "#DATE#" Do I have the wrong syntax?

Any insight is appreciated.

You can pass all kind of filters to an interactive report or even link to a saved report. It is pretty well documented in the section "Linking to interactive reports". Your interactive report needs a static id and then pretty much everything is possible.
