Hi serargi,

 

Unfortunatelly, I was not able to reproduce your problem. If possible, and if you connected to data source with import mode, you could send me the .pbix file so that I can test in my environment.

    I have sent you a private message. You can share the pbix file through private message or e-mail.

    Hi serargi,

     

    I could not open your dashboard. I need the.pbix file so that I can publish to my Power BI service, and create a new dashboard and test whether the URL parameter works.

     

    Best regards,

    I have a similar/related question.  I would like to pass a filter through a URL and have tested this method, my issue is the use of "eq" is causing an issue with the report.  The issue is "eq" translates to 'is' however, which does not bring back the expected result.  ONly when I use 'contains' does the filter work.  Is there a way to use this method with contains instead of equals.
