Why I cannot drag and drop filters from the visual filters section to the page filters section?

Hello

 

I want some filters to be page filters but when I add values, the filters are automatically added to the visual filters section and I cannot move them to the page filters section.

 

Any idea?

Hi , @Anonymous 

Whether you're using Desktop or Power BI service, the Filters pane displays along the right side of the report canvas. You can set filters at three different levels for the report: visual-level, page-level, and report-level filters.

You can refer to this article for more details.

Power BI accepts measures as filters only at a single visual level, and it does not accept measures as filters at the page level nor at the report level.

If you are not  using measures as filters, kindly share your sample data  if you don't have any Confidential Information .Please upload your files to One Drive and share the link here.
