Dashboard data different than Report data

Hi,

I created a dashboard from a report in Power Bi Service with an alert and MS Flow workflow.  It was working fine for 2 weeks.  However, on 11/29 the dashboard started shwoing data different than the report.   I have a date filter applied on the report (show data after 11/12019).  The dashboard was working correctly. However, on 11/29, the dashboard (only) lost that filter and is showing allr esults.  The original report, from which the dashboard tiles were pinned from, still show data only after 11/1/2019.  

 

Why are the dashboard visuals/tiles different from the report that they are linked from.  When I click on the dashboard tile (with the wrong data) it links back to the report (with the right data...).   What is going on?  Please advise!

    hi KristinBowling 

    When you pin a report to a dashboard it pins it with the filter context being applied.
    For example if you pinned it for the first time with the Period Filter for Dec 2019, that is how the dashboard tile will work, always keeping the filter for Dec 2019.
    If you then change your report to filter for Nov 2019, the existing Dashboard tile will still hold Dec 2019.

    For your case, do you mean that there is no filter on that dashboard tile? if you could repin a visual from report to see if it works well?
