Dynamic link gets redirected to app.powerbi.com
Hi,
I'm having issue with dynamic links being redirected to app.powerbi.com.
I have calculated link in this form:
"https://app.powerbi.com/groups/me/apps/1b8b1d25-5b41-4fa3-a5df-43d472d62e11/reports/52a48a87-2c71-49aa-8d29-36e9104f3b75/ReportSection7146db5aefea57682fa5?filter=doc_authors/employee_uid eq '8d47abdc-f69b-4cd8-b6c2-b267497981fa'"
which on web gets translated to:
"https://app.powerbi.com/groups/me/apps/1b8b1d25-5b41-4fa3-a5df-43d472d62e11/reports/52a48a87-2c71-49aa-8d29-36e9104f3b75/ReportSection7146db5aefea57682fa5?filter=doc_authors~2Femployee_uid%20eq%20%278d47abdc-f69b-4cd8-b6c2-b267497981fa%27"
but when user clicks on the link, in 3 out of 5 times gets redirected to https://app.powerbi.com/
Console says /among other things/: Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()
Weird is, that sometimes the link works and user lands on the right page. I tried this in Chrome, Opera and Edge with same result.
Has anyone experienced the same issue?
Thanks, Zuzana
Hi Anonymous,
For the report in a app, we need to the append the query with “&filter=” (after the ctid parameter), eg:
https://app.powerbi.com/groups/me/apps/6b8bab2e-ee27-4826-996b-c8326d6ad111/reports/0eb76b15-4128-4c13-84b1-8c8103212302/ReportSection3?ctid=cd0b6578-32a4-410b-8f18-0d7f6055ef70&filter=Store/Territory eq 'NC'
Reference:

Best Regards,
Qiuyun YuHi, it is actually working now. Apparently I had wrong CTID in link. Stupid mistake.
Anyway, thank you very much v-qiuyu-msft for your help!!

Qiuyun YuHi v-qiuyu-msft ,
Thank you for your response, I didn’t know there supposed to be different expression for App.
I have rewritten my links to following string, but in some cases it is still not working (gets redirected to app.powerbi.com)
In 3 of 5 cases link goes through and lands on filtered page, so table and field is correct.
Is there something I’m not seeing?

Anonymous Glad to hear the issue is resolved now. May I close this thread?
Anonymous When you go to Apps section or open an app in Power BI service, there is a ctid at the end of the URL.
