Hi Oneiricer ,

Say you're working in Power BI Desktop. You want to create a report that has links to other Power BI reports, but you want to show only some of the information in the other reports. First, filter the reports using query string parameters and save the URLs. Next, create a table in Desktop with these new report URLs. Then publish and share the report.

 

I have a test:

  • Original report in service:

 

  • Get links in Power BI Desktop

  • After publish, click the link, the Table/column name and the filtered value are existed:

Hi Eyelyn,

Not sure how your post solves my problem - i am able to generate the URL correctly via DAX.

However when i enable it via the web URL functionality, the dynamically generated text inside the parantheses disappears:

from

...?filter=d_x0020_ERRD%2FBASE_KEY%20in%20(%27ACURITY%7C108965%27,%27SONATA%7CN14226%27,%27SONATA%7C30082%27)

to:

...filter=d_x0020_ERRD%2FBASE_KEY%20in%20()

 

 

See how the text inside the parenthesis is cut? Do you know why that is the case?
