How to fetch Filters pane status using Power BI API
Hi All,
Is there any way to fetch the Power Report "Filters" pane status (show / hide) using the Power BI Rest API?
In the Power BI report editor, we can configure the "Filters" pane whether to show or hide.
Based on this configuration, I need to show the filters pane in the embedded page.
I explored many resources but could not find answer!!
The following Power BI API returns few report properties. But do not find any property realted to "Filters" pane!
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/reports/get-report#report
While embedding the Power BI report in a web page, by default the filters pane is shown (ideally it should show based on the report configuration). We are having many reports and need to show the filters pane based on the configuration in Power bi report.
So I need a way to fetch the filters pane status using the API!
Thanks

Filter pane visibility is controlled by the individual user looking at the report. You cannot fetch that information.
Thanks Ibendlin for reply.
In Power BI editor (https://app.powerbi.com/), if the "Filters" pane is configured as hidden while publising/saving then "Filters" pane is not visible to all users in the Power BI editor.
We want to show the "Filters" pane in embedded report only if this enabled in the report.
Is there any way to get the "Filters" pane status through Power BI API?
Note: The following is the "Filters" pane display status changing option screenshot in Power BI Editor:The answer is still no. Raise an idea if this is important to you.
