Hi there,
I have a filter applied to a visual that I am not able to remove. When I hover over the filter, I get the message that "This filter came from a drill action like drill-down, drill-through, or cross-report drill", and I have no "X" at the top right to clear the filter.
As far as I can tell, I have no drill-through set up applied to the report - so I do not know why or how this filter is getting applied.
The page has a number of bookmarks that I navigate between, and the visual was copied from a different report (that may have had a drill-through set up). When I look at the Selection pane, I don't see any buttons that would send me back to a previous page.
How can I remove the filter? Is this some "ghost" drill action that can't be removed?
See screenshot below:
Any help or ideas would be much appreciated!
Solved! Go to Solution.
It appears that the issue was due to a drill-down action that was applied to a different graph on the same page 😅 It was resolved once I drilled back up
Thank you for the input though 🙂

Hi @AxBI ,
Please Review Bookmarks: Since you mentioned navigating between bookmarks, it's worth reviewing these bookmarks to ensure none are inadvertently applying or preserving the filter state. Editing or updating the bookmarks might help if they are capturing the filtered state of the visual.
