Nested Drill Through

Hello!

 

Anyone know if a page can be, at same time, the target page for a drill through from another page and a origin page to another drill through? 
I have page 1, page 2 and page 3. In page 1 I have several projects, which I have some details in page 2 and 3.

I can drill though to both pages 2 and 3 from page 1. But I can drill from 2 to 3, although I set up the drill, it doesn't even apears as a option when I right click.

Also tried to add a drill through buttom on page 2 but an alert appears that I need to select a project to drill (Don't know if I need to set up something to make it happen).

Anyone has ever find a solution to this?
THanks very much!

@amitchandak , the drill through is set up equally for both pages 2 and 3.
Is this the set up you mentioned?

Hi @Anonymous ,

When you set up the drillthrough destination page(Page 2 and Page 3), did you drag any field for which you want to enable drillthrough into the Drillthrough filters well on that drillthrough page, in the Fields section of the Visualizations pane?

You can refer the content in the following links to set up drillthrough:

Hi @Anonymous ,

For further analysis and troubleshooting, could you please provide your sample pbix file? Please remove the sensitive data before sharing. I will check later to see if some settings in your file are causing the drillthrough function to not work properly. Thank you.

Best Regards
