Bookmark in table or matrix for navigation

HI , i have one question, let's see we have 50 or more projects in different sector, then is it possible that first we make a filter by Sector and then in that sector available project will appear in Table or Matrix and in each project have bookmark in front of project , and then can do navigation for that project from bookmark.  like in below table, there are two sectors, and if i click project & implemention sector then apprear respective projects and from there can do page navigation or insert bookmark in table or matrix etc or etc?

you could also create a drillthrough to another page on the project number, that way you only need to set up one page, it will take you to a the new page and apply the appropriate filters ie the project 

 

this is much easier and less maintenance and hassle that bookmarks.  its also dynamic and means you only neeed to set up one page

Hi @BilalMakki00,

Drillthrough is the ideal solution in this case. A bookmark represents a saved state of a report and cannot be dynamically embedded within another visual. While this may your users requirement, we need to work with the available options or the next best alternative. It's important to communicate this limitation to your stakeholders.

where are you navigating to?  another page?  can you show what you expect the answer to be, there are potential multiple ways to do what you want to achieve but would be useful to understand what you are expecting.

thank u, drillthrough is ok but the requirement is like, for each respective project should have some bookmark or etc then they click on that project and directly go to that page , so is there any solution where can do this ?

i would ask what the value of that is - for bookmarks if you could get it working is much more complicated to manage and a lot more admin, for not really much value.    you could also just create a project page where they can select the sector and project with a slicer.
