Dynamic filtering in Power BI Embedded URL

Hi,

 

Is there a way to add the dynamic filtering capability to a power bi iframe URL ? My need is I have a embedded power bi report containing a table and when I  click open the URLs from the table, it opens another Published to Web or embedded report with the filtered value from the table . eg: Country eq 'Selected Value'.  I seen the example of oDataFilter option in URL but that dont seem to work for me, as well checked the cases where we can add the Filter in the javascripts to do the preselection. But , what I need is the ability to filter dynamically and basically the filters are to passed through the URLs.

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

Regards,

Raaju S R

AKAIK, there's no completed solution for your requirement.

However you can implement something similar in a embedded report via Power BI Javascript API(see Handling Events--dataSelected).

            report.on("dataSelected", function (event) {
                var data = event.detail;
                console.log(data);
            });

Another promising approach(coming in future) you'd expect is drilling though pages, see introduction in this video(starts at 59:59).
