Default Filter Slicer

Hi,

 

My slicers aren't defaulting to what I saved them as before publishing to server. How do I get my Power BI Server Dashboard to default to the slicer/filter values I want? They change every time I reload the dashboard page.

 

Thanks!

    You can switch on the option " Don't allow the end user to save filters on this report." from the desktop/service, and it will always keep the selections the report published with.

    Hi Anonymous 
    There is no option to save drill mode, only the hierarchy level/filters/slicers.

      Hi Ritaf1983,

       

      Thanks for the solution. Do you know if I can do the same thing for a map drill down? I am trying to publish the map with the drill mode on feature, but in Power BI Published report service, it doesn't default to "Drill mode on".

       

      Thanks!

        Hi Anonymous 

        Yes, the same feature also retains the drill level.
        I recorded the screens showing how it works.
        You can download the media file from the link :

        It's important to note that sometimes these things get a bit stuck, partly due to the browser's cache. In such cases, you simply need to refresh the screen with F5.
