Setting slicer with URL

[pboron]

Hello,

Is there a possibility to set slicer with url? I tried using filters with url, but that's not working as I want it, because I want to just set slicer to certain value, so it's easily seen what is chosen, and it's easy to go to other values in slicer, or to show all:

What I want

But with url filter, it shows that one chosen value is the only one and it's not seen from the start what is chosen (in this example it is, but in my dashboard, it is not), you have to open slicer to know and also to clear it you have to go to filters panel in the right:

I had the same idea therefore I have submitted it on the "Power BI Ideas Microsoft"
I encourage you to vote for it!

Hi @pboron ,

I am afraid that Power BI doesn't support it currently. You can come up a new idea about that and add your comments there to improve Power BI and make this feature coming sooner.

Hello @pboron 

unfortunately, from today's point of view, this is not possible because the URL filter comes "from outside" and affects all visuals, including the slicers. Its like you applied the filter to your power query.

Please don't forget to give a 👍 and accept the post as solution. (If it helped😅)
Have a nice day!
