  • Hi REEDZHOU

     

    Can you confirm that when you clicked in the Image, you changed it to a bookmark. And then linked it to an existing bookmark that you have already created?

     

    Also are you testing this in Power BI desktop, if you are remember you have to do CTRL + Click for the links to work.

    If you are in the Power BI Service, you can simply click on the image.

        Bookmarks only work on report pages. Not on dashboards

      Amazing. I spent almost one hour trying to solve this and it was only Ctrl + Click.  I'm so amazed at how poorly documents Desktop is. 

       

      THANK YOU!

        Bookmarks only work on report pages. Not on dashboards :(

  • Dear, 

    I had the same issue, i had a 6 pages power bi dashboard (one main page, and 5 others), i started on the main page to create bookmarks and activate actions in power bi dekstop (2019). I could see the bookmarks in the pane but the link was not working depite the activation of the action control button. 

    The solution was this: click on each page you would like to bookmark and add it to the bookmark pane, if you added all bookmarks while being on the main page, the link will not be activated. 

    So go to page 2, add the bookmark, then go to page 3, add the bookmark and so on..

    Once done, turn on the action button in all pages to the corresponding page.
