Hi Christine Have you reported this to support? - it sounds like a bug to me. If the feature can be tagged with igds_level then I don't see why igds_level_name should be missing.
If you're stuck with working on a geometry basis then an alternate would be to group by level name and then use a GeometryFilter to filter the data by geometry. I don't know what the issue is with mapping files but I'd agree with Hans - there shouldn't be a need to go that way. For the most part workspaces can receive parameters (macros) from an external call in the same way that mapping files can.
