Hi  @amirabedhiafi ,

 

Reset to default: Click this button, the page will return to the default value state of the filter when you uploaded the report to the Power BI Service.

Refresh button using bookmarks: This means that you set a bookmark on Power BI Desktop, this bookmark saves the current filter status, after clicking the button, it will return to the status of the filter in this bookmark.
