@evelyn_soza ,

 

Power bi supports inserting button to the report as below:

You can set actions for the built-in button as below:

  • Back returns the user to the previous page of the report. This is useful for drill-through pages.
  • Bookmark presents the report page that's associated with a bookmark that is defined for the current report. Learn more about bookmarks in Power BI.
  • Drill through (preview) navigates the user to a drill-through page filtered to their selection, without using bookmarks. Learn more about drill-through buttons in reports.
  • Page navigation navigates the user to a different page within the report, also without using bookmarks. See Create page navigation in this article for details.
  • Q&A opens a Q&A Explorer window.

 

Regards,

Jimmy Tao

@evelyn_soza , I doubt about Java Script. But bookmarks allows you to some manipulation like that

Also, refer in March 2020 release Drill through button
