On-Premise Report Server URL not working

Hi,

 

I'm trying to set a filter in a URL as follows: 

 

URL?filter=Table Name/ColumnName eq 'string

E.g. 

powerbireportserver/folder/test/report1?filter=Dimension One/ColumnOne eq 'example1'

 

but when I do so, nothing is filtered. I have the May 2022 version of Power BI desktop. 

 

The column name in SQL is called 'Dimensional.One' , and in Power BI, its 'Dimension One' (with no full-stop)

 

Have I got the syntax for the URL wrong? 

 

Thanks.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Does it match the filter rule? Table and Field names are case-sensitive, value isn't.

URL?filter=Table/Field eq 'value'

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information and let me know immediately. Looking forward to your reply.
