Button Action with filter parameters

[hnguyen76]

Hi All.

Quick question. Let's say I have two reports, ReportA and ReportB. I have a button from ReportA to ReportB with nothing similar with the exception of a table, Dim_Date. I have an action button that takes me from ReportA to ReportB but I would like to maintain the filter context that a user has selected. For example,

https://app.powerbi.com/groups/1bba7bcc3976e/reports/somereportid-329383

When pressed, action should take me to something like this:

https://app.powerbi.com/groups/1bba7bcc3976e/reports/somereportid-329383?&Dim_Date=Period1

Is it currently possible? There has to be a way to do this right? When I load onto the Service, how does it know my previously selected filters?

Do you want to make syn slicer option between two different pbix report?

If yes, so far I haven't seen this kind of feature yet. Because sync slicers work with same report itself not with other pbix report.

@hnguyen76 you can take advantage of sync slicer, and hide the slicer on 2nd page.

Hi @parry2k , I thought syncing slicers does not work across different solutions? 

[hnguyen76]

@Tahreem24 ,

that would be correct. I have a request that would enable me to sync slicers across about 15 different reports.  The request is to be able to select say, Period1 in ReportA, and when user moves to ReportC the same filter context remains.

@hnguyen76 make sense if you are going in different reports then you can think of filter in url, read here
