How do I bookmark when switching between pages?
When using a matrix visual, I select an item and then drill thru to another page, when going back to the original page, is it possible to return to the same item on the matrix visual using bookmarks?
Hi Rnaval,
Thank you for reaching out in Microsoft Community Forum.
Please try using below workaround this might helpful to resolve youur issue;
1.Add a slicer for the field you're drilling through on (e.g., "Item Name" or "ID") to your matrix page.
2.Sync the slicer across both the main and drill-through pages (View → Sync Slicers).
3.Drill-through using that field, so the slicer auto-filters both pages to the selected item.
4.When using the back button, the matrix shows only the selected item — no need to scroll.

Hi Rnaval Bookmarks do not retain interactive states like the selected item in a matrix visual after switching pages. Instead, use drill-through functionality to pass the context of the selected item to another page. Add a back button on the drill-through page to navigate back, keeping the original selection intact.
I do have a back button, it does not return me to the selected item on the matrix, it returns me to the top of the matrix.
Rnaval Could you try syncing a slicer across pages? This will capture the selected item from the matrix and maintain that context when you return via the back button
