Slicer settings based on the user type

I have a pbi dashboard with a slicer containing codes. If a "Normal" user is using the dashboard I want him to only be able to select one code at a time (single-select). But if an "Admin" user is using the dashboard I want him to be able to select any number of codes, including selecting all of them (multi-select with select all option).

How can I achieve that?

Thanks ahead!!

Edit: another alternative that can be accepted is to direct the user to a different page based on his type. Meaning that when a user is opening the dashboard he will be directed to page1 if he is an admin and to page2 if he is not

  • Hello Shwartzman 

    Create Two report page and configure 

     Page 1 (Normal User Page): Add the slicer and set it to Single-Select mode.

     Page 2 (Admin Page): Add the same slicer, but leave it in Multi-Select mode with “Select All” enabled.

    you could try to user bookmarks to redirect admins to a page with a multi-select slicer while redirect normal users to a page with a single-select slicer

      Its also an option.

      The thing is that my dashboard is for both of them. So there is one dashboard with multiple permission values. How can i redirect the admin to their corresponding page?

        Hi Shwartzman ,

        Unforutnatley ,Power BI does not support dynamically changing slicer settings (like single-select vs multi-select) based on user type directly.
