Global filter in dashboards

[DODIXON]

Allow me to pin a filter to the dashboard that can be associated with one or more pinned dashboard KPIs.

Hi, understanding the technical implications and challenges with this... 🙂 (need to trust the same dimension schema/behavior across different models? kind of virtual/federated semantic model ) this would for sure a very handy feature, otherwise we really are just seeing a disconnected mashup of dashboard widgets 🙂

The dashboards are fairly useless without this....

Hi, this feature would be great for giving quick insight in the performance of specific parts of the company, without the need to drill down into the underlying dashboards...

Isn't a dashboard supposed to act almost like a report? As "Anonymous" mentioned, the dashboard seems pretty useless if you can't interact somehow with the charts that are present in the dashboard. Otherwise you would just drill down to the underlying report every time you actually would like to get some insights in the data.

I'm assuming this would mean that we can query multiple data sets at the same time - looking for unique keys, etc? That would be great.

This is a must for a dashboard. Hope this comes soon would love to start using this but for now my dashboard requires slicers/filters.

This is one of the top requirements for our Data Visualization initiative!

First question asked from me about using the dashboards is "where is the filter or slicers for the dashboard". Find it is not there and found this so putting my votes and my support for this feature. We would like to slice an individual chart on the dashboard for some quick review before a drill down.

Functionality would be greatly improved with the ability to "slice and dice" data directly on the tiles on the dashboard. Other solutions (including Microsoft's own Silverlight) accommodate this power and flexibility. Please consider this as a top priority. Thank you!

If global filters can't be added to dashboards, reports would be the next best thing. Basicaly I want how Excel slicers work, you are able to connect them to any chart, table in the workbook. PowerView filters limit you to only the real estate on the current page.
