Sync slicers with bookmarks
- 8 years ago
Slicers sync across pages, not bookmarks. That being said, it is possible that perhaps if you turn on selection controls that you may be able to achieve your desired result. My thinking is that perhaps you can save your bookmark without cross filters and then perhaps your synchronized slicers might work and not get their values removed by the bookmark.
OK, here's a thought, what if in the selection for your bookmark, you choose "Selected Visuals" instead of "All Visuals" and don't select your slicers?
Same result. Sent you a private message for possible webex/screenshare to resolve.

Thank you for reaching out. No I do not have a solution. The main issue is that Bookmarks are still in preview mode while Synch Slicers is in Production. One of my colleagues just attended the annual Microsoft PowerBI Summit in Seattle where they spent a good bit of tie on Bookmarks. It was mentioned that Bookmarks moving to Production would be in the September or October release. I am hoping this is true and happens!

Hello !
I may have a solution in order to sync slicers across bookmarks.
Actually, I've made a lot of trials.
Sorry by advance if my translation is not correct cause I do not use the english version of PBI so I just translate word-for-word of French.
So, when you are on your page, open the Bookmarks tab on your screen.
Right clik on your first bookmark :
- Data must be selected
- View must be selected
- Actual page must be selected
- Unchek All visuals
- And chek Selected visual
But do not move, it's not finish.
Press CTRL+A (all of your visuals are selected) and deselect just what you want to be Sync, so deselect your filters. Everything else have to be selected.
Then, right clik on your Bookmark and "Update".
Do the same on all of your bookmarks. Then, everything should be fixed.Hopefully that answers your question.
Have a nice day !
