There are some public static const strings in SelectionCommandInput class declared at SelectionCommandInput.h header file that I supposed to be equivalent to Selection Filters to make using selection filters more simple. They appear in Visual Studio code hints because they are declared as public in C++
namespace adsk { namespace core {
/// Provides a command input to get a selection from the user.
class SelectionCommandInput : public CommandInput {
public:
ADSK_CORE_SELECTIONCOMMANDINPUT_API static const std::string Bodies;
ADSK_CORE_SELECTIONCOMMANDINPUT_API static const std::string SolidBodies;

ADSK_CORE_SELECTIONCOMMANDINPUT_API static const std::string SketchPoints;
ADSK_CORE_SELECTIONCOMMANDINPUT_API static const std::string ConstructionPoints;
ADSK_CORE_SELECTIONCOMMANDINPUT_API static const std::string ConstructionLines;
ADSK_CORE_SELECTIONCOMMANDINPUT_API static const std::string ConstructionPlanes;
ADSK_CORE_SELECTIONCOMMANDINPUT_API static const std::string Features;
ADSK_CORE_SELECTIONCOMMANDINPUT_API static const std::string Canvases;

ADSK_CORE_SELECTIONCOMMANDINPUT_API static const std::string Profiles;
ADSK_CORE_SELECTIONCOMMANDINPUT_API static const std::string Texts;
ADSK_CORE_SELECTIONCOMMANDINPUT_API static const std::string CustomGraphics;
...
But accessing them throws exception in codes like this:
std::string s = adsk::core::SelectionCommandInput::Profiles;
and using them in CommandInputs.addSelectionInput method returns nullptr.
Is it a bug? What is their purpose?
