Advocate IDrill down in Power BI Service - Arrow Missing
The ability to click the small down arrow in the top right hand corner of applicable visuals to enable drill down has been there for months but it appears that a recent update has taken that functionality away. Is there any way to enable that logic again? Having to select the visual, select explore, select drill down, and then click on the target data is much more inefficient. Then when you drill down you have to go back through the explore menu to drill back up instead of just clicking on the up arrow. The original functionality is still present in the Desktop client and works well. Please tell me there is some way to revert back? I am presenting this to our Executive Staff in 2 days.

I agree. This feature going away has made the process not intuitive, which was the biggest selling point of Power BI. Incidentally, I was also going to present this to our executive leadership tomorrow.

What version are you on? I am on 2.34.4372.322 64-bit (April 2016) and I still see the drill down arrow in the Desktop for bar charts at least, haven't checked other visualizations.

Agree. Drill down not showing on ipads & Power BI online.
Using the most current Power BI Desktop version.

When can we expect this feature to be there again?

Make sure you log this in Issues:

My bet is that if you log it there, it will get fixed pretty quickly.

Thanks for the feedback. It looks like someone already posted something in Issues. Hopefully the BI team will get on this soon and bring the functionality back.

Vicky_Song I just took a look back through a few of my reports and I do see that the arrows are back on the individual visuals. Thank you for listening to all of the feedback and restoring this method. Hopefully the BI team can ask for feedback prior to making a change like this or at least give some advanced notice. Thanks again.

Hi All,
Today all of sudden arrow of drill down is not visible in my reports for metrix and as well as for stacked column chart. When I see in power bi desktop its visible.
I am bound to enable drill down from explore in the navigation of power bi service. Is anyone aware of this changes?
