I could be wrong but from reading this thread, the solution seemed to be adding the following to the end of the URL: "?pageName=<pagename>"

 

I'm on PBI Service so not the same setup but 'pagename' didn't work for me. What did work was the report section ID that can be obtained from PBI service. Solution via: Using the pageName parameter - Learn Power BI [Book] (oreilly.com)

    Thanks for the suggestion, Alex, but that doesn't seem to work in Report Server. I used Power BI Helper to surface the ReportSection IDs for specific pages and tried plugging those into the URL, but the report still loaded the default page.

      I am having the same issue with '&pageName=ReportSection' not working in the PBIRS. I can get table filtering to work via the URL but would like to generate a link to one of my reports that lands on a specific page that isn't the default page for the report. Would be a shame to have to duplicate the report just to make a version with a different default page!
