Is it possible to use a Hierarchy as a filter in VA? 

If yes how is this done?

Hello,

 

I don't think you can manually create a filter on the Filters pane using a hierarchy.

 

However, you can set up a filter action between two objects, where the source of the action has a hierarchy.

 

For example, try dragging a hierarchy onto a page in VA. You should get a bar chart. If you create a filter action on this bar chart, it should filter based on the hierarchy drill state and the members that are selected in the bar chart.
