Your ideas is so great @lbendlin 

Hi, @Nixan 

You can use the following link to put the data in your report where the Project name column of the project table equals Accela GIS.

 As provided by Super User. Since there is a space in your column Project name, we need to use the escape characters provided by the document.

Let's take the example PBIX file for Power BI as an example. An example URL for filtering Store Type = New Store is:

 

https://app.powerbi.com/groups/xxxx/reports/xxx/ReportSection4?filter=Store/Store%20Type eq 'New Store'
