PowerBi published in PowerBi report Server Direct link

[DaniEMIT]

Hi All,

i've a lot of PowerBi (.pbix) report published in our PowerBi Report Server (not powerbi.com).

Each report contains more than one sheet.

Is it possible to create a direct link that allow to open directly not the default page of the report?

I try using "pageName" or "ReportSection" but doesnt' work.

Below some example used (not working):

https://MyReportServer/reports/powerbi/MyReport?PageName=1

https://MyReportServer/reports/powerbi/MyReport?PageName=ReportSection1

https://MyReportServer/reports/powerbi/MyReport?ReportSection=1

Thanks in advance for you support,

Daniele

Hello,Vanchy_Liao and Expiscornovus ,thanks for your concern about this issue.

Your answers are excellent!
And I would like to share some additional solutions below.
Hi,@DaniEMIT .I am glad to help you.

The report server API does not seem to support the ability to pass filter page parameters.
However you can try the following alternative.
1. Create a home page in the report, and then add buttons or shortcuts to link to other pages on this home page (by way of buttons, clicking on a button on the home page to jump to another page (Button binds to the report web URL of the other page))

2. Use bookmarks: Create bookmarks in the report and use them to navigate to different pages.
I hope that the following relevant issue will be of help to you.

I hope my suggestions give you good ideas, if you have any more questions, please clarify in a follow-up reply.

Hi Jian,

thanks for your reply. I'm sorry, but i can't use your suggestion. I need a direct URL for specific page in the powerbi report, because i have to share only specific page on a monitor. It can't work with button or bookmarks.

Anyway thanks for you reply,

Daniele

Hi,@DaniEMIT .Thank you for your reply.

The rest of my team and I came to the following conclusion after testing Url filter.
For PBIRS, the page switching of pbix reports in the web portal is completely based on front-end CSS code

You can see that the front-end page adds a selected attribute to <div> where Page2 is located, including its parent tag <li> is also added with selected attribute, and sets aria-selected = true
The TAB is currently selected
When I tried to change Page1's added selected state and changed aria-selected = false to true (page2 and page1 front-end CSS property Settings switched)
The report page automatically switches to page1

Unfortunately, there is no support for setting CSS properties to URLs, as you can observe, the URL of the report does not change when you switch report pages.
And regarding the SSRS URL filter feature, it supports paginated reports, not pbix reports.

For Power BI Service, the system supports users to filter reports and change the report display page by modifying the parameters of the URL, but for Power BI Report Server, there is no such API interface developed to realize similar effects for the time being.
You can consider modifying the CSS of the front-end page to try to achieve your goal.

I hope my suggestions give you good ideas, if you have any more questions, please clarify in a follow-up reply.

Best Regards,

Carson Jian,

@DaniEMIT 

i have asked similar question before and it probably only support "rs:embed" and "filter" parameters.

there is no specific documnet to introduce all url parameters for pbi.
Re: Available query string when embedding Power BI... - Microsoft Fabric Community

there is a thread describing the all parameters for pbi, but they only works in PBI Service.

PBIRS is just inferior to PBI Service from both products and documents perspectives.

Hi @DaniEMIT,

Back in SSRS days you used to be able to use the Section parameter for that. Have you tried to append rc:Section=2 to the end of the url to go to page 2.

Hi Expiscornovus,

i tried with the parameter "rc:Section=2" but it doesn't work.
