Piwik Version: 3.0.4

If I use the search box on a Custom Dimension to filter for two zip codes, for example: 75202|28203

This works properly and returns results like this screen shot...

...and uses a URL like the one below:

https://piwik.example.com/index.php?date=2017-09-05&scopeOfDimension=visit&viewDataTable=table&idSite=1&period=month&disableLink=1&module=CustomDimensions&action=getCustomDimension&widget=1&moduleToWidgetize=CustomDimensions&actionToWidgetize=getCustomDimension&idDimension=1&filter_limit=15&filter_sort_column=nb_visits&filter_sort_order=desc&filter_column=label&filter_pattern=75202%7C28203

We can see that the filter_pattern query string parameter is equal to an encoded value of 75202%7C28203

Now if I try to load this widget via an iframe with the following URL...

https://piwik.example.com/index.php?idSite=1&date=2017-09-05&period=month&disableLink=1&module=Widgetize&action=iframe&widget=1&token_auth=abc123&moduleToWidgetize=CustomDimensions&actionToWidgetize=getCustomDimension&idDimension=1&filter_column=label&filter_pattern=75202%7C28203&filter_limit=15

We can see the filter_pattern is encoded with the same value of 75202%7C28203, but this yields no results, and from this screenshot you can see that the value in the search box is not properly decoded.

Is this perhaps a bug, or am I using the API improperly via an iframe?

Thanks for the report @signalpoint. Yes, it is a bug. Although we didn't plan for you to do this (and don't yet have automated tests for it), it is an interesting and valid use case and should work.
