Direct link to a specific page

Hi Community,

I am trying to create a direct link to a specific page (+filtered) of a web published report, so I used the below link but the first issue I am facing is that I always land in the first page of my report.

https://app.powerbi.com/view?r=ID&pageName=mypagename&filter=Store eq  'specific Store'  

 

Any idea ?

Thank you in advance.

Hi @DataVitalizer ,

 

Open your .pbix file in Power BI Desktop, then go to the page that you want to make your default page. Next, save the file at that point then get your embedded code to publish the report.

Now publish your report, the 'default' page will be your default page now.

 

Best Regards,

Hi @V-lianl-msft 

I published the report to web and I tried to open it using the customised link.

What I am trying to acheive by that is to allow two users to open the web published report on a specific page and filter without giving them access to the reste of data and without assigning them pro license.

 

Thank you in advance.

Hi @DataVitalizer ,

 

"Publish to web" has some limitations, one of which is "reports using row level security"

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-publish-to-web#limitations 

You can try to apply a report level filter in filter pane to restrict data access.

Hi @V-lianl-msft 

If I filter the report before the publish no one will be able the view the whole data.

It seems that creating links for a specific pages or filter is not available in the web published reports.

Hi @DataVitalizer ,

 

Yes, as you said, it can't be done right now, it may be added in the future.
