Embedded - Mobile: Custom Filter Panel

[natetill]

Hi,

We are trying to create a custom filter panel for our embedded (for your clients) reports on our mobile site (not using pbi mobile app). We are essentially trying to replicate the filter panel in a more mobile friendly manner via our custom code.

Is there any way via Rest or Javascript api to get the full list of report filter options (similiar to what displays in the standard filter panel) instead of only the actual filters applied? 

Dont see any clear documentation on this; thanks for any help.

Hi @natetill ,

When you embed a Power BI report, you can apply filters automatically during the loading phase, or you can change filters dynamically after the report is loaded. For example, you can create your own custom filter pane and automatically apply those filters to reports to show the user specific insights. You can also create a button that allows the user to apply filters to the embedded report.

The following filter types are supported:

• Basic - IBasicFilter
• Advanced - IAdvancedFilter
• Top N - ITopNFilter
• Relative date - IRelativeDateFilter
• Relative time - IRelativeTimeFilter

For reference:

Control report filters

Hi Rico,

Thanks so much for your response. However I cant quite figure out how this addresses our question at all?

We are aware that you can apply a filter programattically. Our question was around building a custom filter panel where users can select filter values to apply. We are trying to figure out how we can get the values to populate our custom filter panel.

In other words, how do we get the full list of fields users can select to filter on ("Filters on all pages") as displayed on the filter panel? Please refer to our original question regarding building a custom filter panel and how to populate that panel.
