Selected Visuals Bookmarks and Filters
Hi Tropped,
Bookmarks in simple terms are similar to snapshots of your report. So whenever you make changes to your report, you should accordingly update your bookmark to reflect the same.
So whenever you add a visual, your report will have it, but not your bookmark since you haven't updated it after the change.
Hence you should update your bookmark everytime you make a change for it to reflect
Thanks for the answer, Thejeswar!
Do you know if there is a way to update the selection of a bookmark without having to make a new bookmark everytime? I've tried using the 'Update' option, but it ignores visuals that weren't selected on creation of the bookmark, even if I'm selecting them now.
You don't have to create a bookmark everytime you make a change. You can always update the existing bookmark
But there's a trick involved in this.
1. First Click on the bookmark where you want to make a change
2. Now after you make a change, directly update the bookmark using the elipses as v-qiuyu-msft showed in the image
3. Suppose if you click on the bookmark item (on the bookmark, not the elipses), your changes will look like they are lost. In such case you will have to do it by enabling the Field Selections pane to show and hide the items of your interest
