    Hi Milan1756 

     

    I'm also embedded my PBI reports in webapp. My reports having lot of slicers. the same problem I faced, sync filters will not work in embedded pbi reports. It'll support only in Native PBI. If you want this feature, please submit your idea here Fabric Ideas - Microsoft Fabric Community If your idea get enough votes, Microsoft will bring up this feature in future. 

     

    Thank you!!!

Hey there,

Just checking in to see if you were able to sort out the filter retention issue in your embedded report setup.

If not, a few things that might help troubleshoot:

  • Are you using Power BI JavaScript SDK to pass filters or bookmarks?
  • Is the report set to persistent filters in the Power BI Service?
  • Are you embedding in edit or view mode?

Sometimes filters reset if the embed token doesn’t preserve session state or if the report reloads fully on navigation.

Let me know where you're stuck — happy to help dig deeper!

    Thanks so much for your response! Apologies for the delay — I was tied up with some other work and just got the chance to review it.

    Yes, we're using the Power BI React embedding library to implement the embedding within a view model from Fabric capacity. However, we've noticed that persistent filters only work when users are logged in with a Microsoft account.

    Our challenge is that we have a large, non-organizational user base, so Microsoft account login isn't a viable option. As a result, persistent filters aren’t applicable in our case, and we’re still exploring alternative solutions.

    Appreciate any suggestions or insights you might have!
