Why am I receiving Tableau error 6EA18A9E when adding a filter to a dashboard

I have a working workbook but we're retro-fitting the new Tableau Relationship data model. Am not sure that's a factor.

But on a dashboard with multiple worksheets when I try to add a Filter to the Dashboard I receive this error. I've read about it but can't figure out what specifically happening.

My Desktop version is 2020.2.5 (20202.20.0818.0857) 64bit

I encountered this exact error, except for me it occurred when I was attempting to create a very simple animated timeline with Pages holding a list of years, and Columns holding a list of prices.

I have no idea if this is also what is causing your error when you add a filter, but I went into Format->Animations & turned off animations for the sheet and that fixed the error.

I had the same problem and with the hint, that the error occures because of an empty extract I was searching through my workbook and found where Sheet A filters Sheet B. But with all fields from A this is way to much for B. The solution was to deactivate the general filtering of sheet A and to create an individual action filter for sheet A and apply it on sheet B.

Hope that could help.
