Multi action button in Power BI

Hi All,

 

Is there a way to create a button to perform multiple actions in Power BI apart from using the bookmarks technique?

    Hi Anonymous 

    You can share more details about your requirement and actions you are looking for
    Without using a bookmark, in one button you can use one action, not multiple


    Let me know if that works for you

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    I would like to acknowledge the valuable input provided by PijushRoy . However, I noticed that further details were needed to fully understand the issue.

     

    Currently, Power BI does not support assigning multiple actions directly to individual buttons. Each button is designed to perform a single action.

     

    Here are the options for button actions:

     

    1.Back returns the user to the previous page of the report.

     

    2.Bookmark presents the report page that's associated with a bookmark that is defined for the current report.

     

    3.Drillthrough navigates the user to a drillthrough page filtered to their selection, without using bookmarks.

     

    4.Page navigation navigates the user to a different page within the report, also without using bookmarks.

     

    5.Bookmark navigation navigates the user to a different state in the report, either on the same or a different page, by using bookmarks.

     

    6.Q&A opens a Q&A Explorer window. When your report readers select a Q&A button, the Q&A Explorer opens, and they can ask natural-language questions about your data.

     

    7.Apply all slicers and Clear all slicers buttons apply all the slicers or clear all the slicers on a page.

     

    8.Web URL opens a web page in a browser.

    May I ask what is your specific need for multiple actions? Can you say it so I can see if there is a way to implement it.

  • I know this was from over a year ago, but I also need the same thing.

     

    What I want is a button that functions like an "Apply All Slicers" button, but also sends the information chosen in the filters to a sharepoint list. I know I can make both of those buttons separately, but I need them to be the same button.
