Slicer Group with Bookmarks
Hello there,
I have two field which are not related to each other but have same data. I want to sync them i.e. when I select one value in one of the field it should also be selected in second field. For this I am using 2 slicers with Slicer Group where you can specify group for a slicer and all slicer in that group will sync. Now I am using Bookmarks to hide one of the slicer based on user selection. The problem is that when I hide one of the slicer with bookmark, the syncing disappears and as soon as I show slicer back with bookmark the syncing appears. Please see below gif for more understanding.
Is this intended behaviour or is there a bug? I really want to use slicers this way in one of my requirement. If anyone have any idea about this please let me know.

Hi bhavesh-jadav,
Based on my test, all slicer within the same group will sync in current BookMark. That is to say, the the syncing won't keep state when we switch between different bookmarks.

v-yulgu-msft is there a workaround for this? I believed that bookmarks should keep state of slicers irrespective of if they are using grouping or not. But in this case it is reseting when I use slicer groups. The scenario that I menitoned in the question is one of the best scenario where slicer grouping can be used. Based on your answer, do I have to show multiple slicers to user with same values just because slicer grouping does not work with bookmarks? Please help me with the solution.
Hi bhavesh-jadav,
After I unchecked the Data section on each bookmark, the slicer selection retained when I switched across bookmarks. Please set the same the option property ("Display", "Current Page" and "All Visuals") as below to see if it works in your scenario.
