Filtering Priority for Multiple Dashboards?
Hi, Anonymous
According to your description, do you mean you want to click the visual to create filter and then make the filter to other report pages?
For this that is currently not possible in Power BI.
We want to create filters for other pages through visuals, currently only "Drill Through" functionality, click Create filter, currently only for the current page.
For the "Drill through", you can refer to :
Set up drillthrough in Power BI reports - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

Hi , Anonymous
Based on your description, you want to select a slicer on one page and influence the selection of that slicer to other pages. Right?
For your questions, Power BI filters the priority issues. As I understand it, the role of filters is primarily to modify the current context, which takes effect for all filters, and the final filter context is intersection. And there are different types of filters, you can refer to the following documents:

For your need , I think you can try to use the Sync slicer in your report pages, For more information , you can refer to :

Hi,
Thanks for taking the time to reply. Not exactly the response I was looking at.
Summary:
I want a chart to be able to effect charts on different dashboards. So, whether a user selects a Slicer option, or they click on a chart, it will then effect any one of my dashboards (I have over 22 tabs). So,then is the filtering linear? (e.g. I select an option on Tab 2, then one on Tab 3, then one on Tab 4, etc) then it's going to just filter by that. It all needs to sync together.
Details:
To go back to my example, if someone clicks on a pie chart for Tab 2 - Demographics, and selects "Male," then that "filter/selection" should carry through to Tab1, Tab3, Tab4, Tab5, etc...all automatically. So, when a users goes right to Tab1 after clicking on a chart selection in Tab2, then the charts in Tab 1 would be filtered out by "Male" too. Then, if a user selected an option in Tab 1, it would be the same scenario. So, not just a slicer, but any chart selected as well.
Since the user would be selecting options from any chart or report (there's 22 tabs), then I'd want them all synced for any selection made by click on a chart, or made through a slicer option on any of the pages/reports.
