I have the same problem. The datasected even was firing when the slicer selction changed. It is not firing any more. Is anybody working on this?

Hi everyone,

 

When selecting data from a slicer in my power bi embedded report, the dataSelected event is not firing anymore, I used to catch this event and work on it normally. What did go wrong?

I didn't change the code and it was working normally, it stopped working today.

 

Thanks...

I can confirm that the dataselected won't fire when clicking on a slicer. Can you ensure it was working? If so, you can submit an issue at https://github.com/Microsoft/PowerBI-JavaScript/issues.

@Eric_Zhang yes it was working, I also tested to change the orientation of the slicer from vertical to horizontal and it triggers the dataSelected event in the horizontal orientation (Where the items are represented as buttons instead of checkboxes), so I did report an issue http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/Vertical-Orientation-Slicer-Not-triggering-Data-Selection-eve...

I will submit an issue at the link you provided as well, Thanks.
