    Hi, Anonymous 

     

    I don't understand what the dynamic you want is. First of all, the page name can't be automatically displayed by any dax function, you must name it directly if you want to use it. 

    Secondly, if you use the button to jump to other pages, isn't it fixed? Why do you need dynamic?

Anonymous , If should be selectedpage  name 

 

Report Page Button Tooltip =
SWITCH(selectedvalues(Page[PageName]) ,
"Report Page 1", "Now showing Report Page 1...",
"Report Page 2", "Now showing Report Page 2...",
""
)

 

 

Same formula that you use in action, you should use in the tooltip

 

refer if needed

Display only one page in the report, Hide rest: https://youtu.be/d4H0GKUH0r4

    Thanks amitchandak for quick reply. I am wondering however that how to do conditional navigation first of the pages using Report Page name? I have a datatable like this. Typically you would use some rules based on the data or in the past I have used USERNAME() function to restrict the page navigation for certain users. In this case however, I am bit lost as to how first achieve dynamic page navigation using page names, (and then I guess the same logic will apply to button tooltips)? I have added buttons with Text on them as "1", "2", "3" and so on...

     

     

    Page_Datatable =
DATATABLE (
    "Sr No", INTEGER,
    "Report Page", STRING,
    {
        { 1, "Report Page 1" },
        { 2, "Report Page 2" }
    }
)
