B) options.jsonFilters should contain all applied filters as I know.

pbiviz.json of both projects contains

"apiVersion": "2.3.0"

May filters visibility depend on either type of filtered column or kind in dataRoles (capabilities.json)? It is Text in Grouping for custom matrix visual and Date in GroupingOrMeasure for custom slicer visual.

    You can send the source code and the report to [email protected] and I will try to figure out what is wrong with filtration if you wish.
