Field Parameter in Paginated Report

In Power BI, the Field Parameter feature allows users to dynamically change the field being displayed in a visual by selecting from a dropdown list.

This functionality enhances interactivity and flexibility in analyzing data.

I am wondering if it's possible to replicate the Field Parameter functionality in a paginated report. Specifically,

I would like to create a dropdown parameter in a paginated report that allows users to select a field from a dataset and dynamically update the report visuals accordingly.

Has anyone successfully implemented a similar feature in a paginated report? If so, I would greatly appreciate any insights, suggestions, or examples on how to achieve this.

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

    Hi  j0710 ,

    Paginated Report doesn't support Field Parameter. Pagination reports can only display the data on the corresponding row after selecting a parameter, but cannot change fields (i.e., change data on columns).
    For example,
    here is my sample data:



    And I set the parameter:


    And here is the output:
