Slicer Default Value

I am using a slicer with multiple selection to allow users to choose locations to view data on. How can I set default values for a slicer that works for non numeric values?

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

You may set up default filters by the following tutorial. In fact, the bookmark function is used. Hope to help you.
