New SharePoint online WebPart - allow configure web part to pass filters e.g. from PropertyBag

[Brian2]

It would a great iteration on the new SharePoint web part to add configuration of the web part with filters, either from the logged in user or values from the site's property bag. This would allow the easy configuration and deployment of a single report and webpart across multiple sites (e.g. Project or Customer sites).

Yep, otherwise I'm going to have to create 200 copies of the same report, one for each of our client-focused SharePoint sites!

At minimum normal report query parameter filtering should be supported

[mparowski1]

Exactly! We got super-excited about embedding a standard report on each of our project office sites, only to find that the web part doesn't support the URL-based filtering described here: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/filter-a-report-with-a-url-query-string-parameter/ Adding support for this in the web part would be great, but this recommendation is even more foolproof. Another viable variant would be to add fields to the web part configuration to specify Table, Column, and Value to filter by, similar to what the URL does.

How are we supposed to filter each project sharepoint sites if we want to use the same report for all of them? We cannot ask our project managers to manually set a report filter each time they open the webpart.
