How to display based on the user login needs to display 1st option by default in Territory

Hello,

I have one report with the row level security, basically that report shows data based on the user login they can see respective  territories data. If A employee logins he/she can see their respective territory list only in the territory filter but now my requiremnt was if A employee logins, whatever territory filter conatins all the terrotories list instead of that, by default needs to to be show 1st territory as selected in the territory filter and respective data only.

Eg: if A employee logins  since, A employee belongs to 2 territories so, whatever 1st option in the territory filter that is default option needs to be show. How can we achieve this requirement in Power BI.

Some possible solutions:

  1. Use the Chiclet Slicer with Forced selection enabled (assuming you are happy with the appearance of this visual). This will automatically select to the first visible option.
  2. Instead use a calculation group to apply a "default" filter when no selection has been made. See this article for the general idea:
