Display the report page in a separate window and sync the filters

[yyjp]

Is it possible to display a report page in a separate window in the browser and synchronize the filters?

I would like to display page 1 and page 2 of a report in separate windows on a multi-monitor computer and synchronize the filters.

Thank you in advance.

Hi @yyjp 

Displaying different pages of a Power BI report in separate browser windows and synchronizing their filters is not natively supported by Power BI out of the box. Each browser tab or window loads the report independently, and filter selections (like slicer values) are scoped to the session of that specific window. Therefore, if you open page 1 and page 2 in two different windows, changing a filter on page 1 will not automatically update the filter on page 2, even though they belong to the same report.

However, there are a few workarounds you can consider:

URL-based filters (query string parameters) – If your report uses filters that can be passed via the URL (e.g., ?filter=Table/Column eq 'Value'), you could open both pages in separate browser windows using those URLs with the same filter values pre-applied. This is static, not dynamic syncing, but helps simulate synchronized views.

Embedding with JavaScript – If you're embedding Power BI reports in a custom web application using the Power BI JavaScript API, you can synchronize filter states programmatically. When a user interacts with a filter in one embedded report, your code can capture that and apply the same filter to the second embedded report. This approach gives you full control but requires web development effort and embedding rights (Pro or Premium).

Bookmarks and Sync Slicers (within same window only) – Power BI Desktop supports sync slicers across pages, but this only works within a single report session (i.e., one browser window/tab) and does not extend across separate windows.

In summary, there’s no native way to sync filters across multiple browser windows viewing different report pages, but solutions involving embedding or URL filter parameters can partially address the need, depending on your setup and technical resources.
