Synchronize slicers with bookmarks

Purpose: Synchronize slicer in bookmarks.

Background: I'd like my date segmentation to sync between bookmarks. In the following example I selected Q3 as my time frame in the "All" marker. However, when I go to the "Mountaineering" bookmark my time frame selection is deleted.

Can data slicers between bookmarks and pages be synchronized? Or just pages?

  • slc7456  what is the goal of the mountaineering bookmark? Bookmarks can be used to swap pages and not affect data, but they cannot currently be used to only keep some filters. 

    Here is some helpful screenshots on how to change the properties of the bookmarks: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-bookmarks

    You'll need to hover over the mountaineering bookmark and click the ..., then deselect the 'data' option. This will only work if the mountaineering bookmark does something other than filter the data.
