Dynamic Slicer selection of First value based on User Profile

I am trying to get a slicer selection work dynamically based on logged user profile.

 

For E.x if 'User A' has access to "abc, xyz,edf" and "User B" has access to "rft,kjf,qsc",

When the "User A" opens the dashboard, Slicer should Select one value from "abc, xyz,edf" value and when "User B" opens the dashboard slicer should select one value from "rft,kjf,qsc". 

 

Note:

1. Number of users and values is not fixed.

2. Slicer can select any value based on user Security, no specific order or value.

 

Values

User Name

abcUser A
xyzUser A
edfUser A
rftUser B
kjfUser B
qscUser B

I was able to resolve this issue of Default value Selection from A slicer.

 

In my case I used a "Chiclet Slicer" to resolve my problem. 

This slicer helped me to make dynamic default value selection based on User Security/RLS.

 

I guess the Other one I can use in this scenario is "Pre-selected Slicer". Since there's was no proper documentation available on web around implementation of it, so I wasn't able to use it. If anyone has idea or link around this particular slicer please share the link below.

Allow users to save their filter choices.  These will then be remembered and re-applied when the user returns to the report. Much easier and user friendly.
