Export to PDF/PowerPoint Not Respecting End-User Selections
GilbertQ The report I'm testing with was first created earlier this month and published to the Power BI service at the same time. I confirmed that I am on the newest version of Power BI Desktop and republished for testing again. Version: 2.73.5586.661 64-bit (September 2019)
It appears that other users are now having the same issue:

GilbertQ - I did use the Current Values option, with no luck. Even selecting Current Values, the export does not respect Filters, Drill Location, etc.
Is this an older report?
The reason I ask is possibly there were changes made to the Power BI Desktop file, which need to be opened and uploaded for those changes to take effect.
The filtering does work for me when I export.

- I would suggest if the error persists to log a support request for the Power BI team to investigate your error.
I am now having the same issue (I just started a new thread about it actually). But my exports are showing as if nothing was filtered (there were filters applied, and I used the correct "current values" export option).
I am nearly sure this used to work properly, but I don't export very much so I can't say exactly when it broke.
I guess I will open a support case about it.
