Missing drill down/expand options in PowerBI published report

Hello

I have a report where i defined matrix with several levels. On power BI desktop i can expand my matrix, however in the published report i do not see the option to expand the matrix on top of the visual.

Is there any flag to turn these feature on/off fro report on the web app.powerbi.com?

Fisrst picture shows the expand option, second picture from the power bi report, the option does not exist, nor in the menu (you can only drill down from menu).

I found the solution , under row header in formating a visula, set the +/- icon to on.

Simple, you have to turn on the drill down and all the hierarch levels under format ->general->header icons ->Icons->turn on whatever the options you need. Now you will be able to see them.

but this is not the solution, what you are mentioned +/- icon, that is only to show hierarchies. did you find the solution to the drill down issue?

Hey abalgir,

I had the same question. I began to experiment with my matrix tables. I discovered if I mouse right click on the row or column headers I see options of:

- Expand or Collapse (which has several sub options)

- Drill down or up (depends on the granularity you have displays)

Hope this helps
