How to apply values in filter url to slicers in powerbi?

[Anonymous]

I have a powerbi report which has Team and Subteam slicers. I want to get reports for specific teams. When I pass specific team name in url using below filter url, it does not change the value in the team slicer and hence I am not getting the required report.

?filter=Team/teamname eq 'team1'

I don't want users to select the specific team but the teamname value given in the url should automatically get selected in the slicer and load the report accordingly. Is it possible and How do I do it?

Hi @Anonymous 

The URL filter works like a report-level filter on all pages in the report. It will be applied to all visuals in the report, including your Team slicer. But it cannot select the option on your behalf. It cannot do a 'Select' operation. 

If your URL filter doesn't work on the report, check whether the table name and column name in the URL are completely consistent with the names in your model as Table and Field names are case-sensitive.
