Drill down scenario

I need to create a mobile reporting solution that might look like this:

On the first screen I would have a tree like slicer to navidate through a some structure. After tapping a node a new screen with a report opens. What I need is to send a node id to the backend to query data for the report. Is that possible?

 

Thanks

For your requirement, I suggest you use "Hierarchy Slicer", you can download this custom visual from: https://app.powerbi.com/visuals/

 

It can have a tree for drilling to different level. However, it's not possible to display in a new screen when you tapping a node. We can have the Hierarchy Slicer appeared along with the visual to filter data based on its selection.

 

Regards,

Will I be able to capture the selected node id and send it to report's data source to query data for this specific id?

@Markzolotoy

 

No, it's not possible to pass the selection in slicer back to data source as parameter to filter data again.

 

Regards,
