Dynamic default slicer selection
Hello. These values are not attached to an actual date, so I am not sure how to have the default slicer selection update when the report is refreshed. Any help is appreciated.
Hi, you cannot make dynamic selection in power bi unless you give your selection a generic name. Lets say I always want the current month to be selected by default, then I have to create a column where i would say the month of today ="Current Month". Once current month is selected, the selection will remain after refresh.
Thanks, that's what I though. One thing I am trying to do is make a measure that is a list of the top five values in the ACADEMIC_PERIOD column. Power BI wants me to use the TOPN filter for that, but I'm wondering if I have a list in a measure, could I use that list for the slicer?
