Maintain Slicer Values through Bookmarks
Hi npowerbi,
On the bookmarks pane, right click on your bookmarks and deselect the Data option:
When you create a bookmark with this option active it will always return to that specific filter in your case is the All.
If you do this for all your bookmarks you should be abble to go from one to the other keeping slicer choice.

Hi MFelix,
Its true that unchecking the Data from bookmarks will keep slicer values across bookmarks, however it removes ALL filters regardless of if its a Page Filter, Visual Filter, or Slicer, which means that any default filters are dropped. Is it possible to retain default filters on the visuals while still allowing a single specific slicer to carry across bookmarks?
Hi Anonymous,
What you want is the contrary to what is in this post, is to maintain the filters when you return to the bookmark. So you need to have the Data option active, that way everytime you return to the bookmark will pick up the default values for the slicers.

Hi MFelix
Im sorry if i was not clear. I am looking for the same functionality as the original post, to be able to pass the slicer value across bookmarks. The only difference is that I am trying to accomplish this for a single a single slicer only. All other filters / slicers should remain as bookmarked.
Ie. If you have a table with columns A,B,C and a Slicer on A with two bookmarked views D and E. In a chart/table I want to be able to set a default filter for Column B which would be different for bookmark D and E, but then maintain my slicer selection for column A across both bookmarks. When I unselect Data from the bookmarks the default filter for Column B is dropped as well.
That worked like a charm :) Thanks a ton for a quick tip. Appreciate your help.
Thank you, It helped
