Hi pftcg,

 

This can be done using the bookmark option. Not really sure on what is underlaing the A, B, C selection but please check the link below and you can get it to work.

 

Use bookmarks to share insights and build stories in Power BI

 

If you need any further hep please share the model setup and how the slicer also affects the data.

    Hey MFelix

     

    Appreciate the response but bookmarks don't work with slicers AFAIK. You have to explicitly trigger a bookmark / click the bookmark for it to work correct?

    Is there a way to make the select action in a slicer go to a specific bookmark?

     

    Thanks,

      Hi pftcg,

       

      You cannot use a bookmark with a slicer but you can do the other way around if you add a bookmark and link it to a selection on your slicer you will get the data and the visuals as you need.

       

      Check the part of the post where  they refer:

       

      "You can also select whether each bookmark will apply data properties, such as filters and slicers, the display properties such as spotlight and its visibility, and page changes that presents the page that was visible when the bookmark was added. These capabilities are useful when you use bookmarks to switch between visual types - in which case you would likely want to turn data properties off, so filters aren't reset as users change visual types."

       

      If you want I can try and create an example.

       

      Regards,
