Hi gah113,

In Power BI desktop, we are in edit mode of the report, the option "Require Single Selection" is visible.

After we embed the report in a Power BI embedded application, if we just view the embedded report, as long as the report is saved with Require Single Selection turned on in edit mode in Power BI desktop or service before, we can only has one value selected though we click on multiple values. This is the same as we view the same report in Power BI service reading mode.

Best Regards,
