Filter keeps resetting on Power BI service

Hello,

 

I could use some help on how to keep a filter from resetting. I have a column chart in Power BI desktop with the column "Year" as my x-axis. I have a filter on that visual to exclude blank values and everything works fine. When I publish to Power BI service though I have to set the filter again because the (Blank) value shows up in the visual. Then I pin that visual to my dashboard. If I click on that visual in the dashboard it takes me to the report and the (Blank) values are back even after setting the filter to exclude those values. Can someone please explain this or know how I can fix it?

 

Thanks,

Thank you for your response. I switched to enable Persistent filters and re-published my report and the filters were as I expected.

That is awesome, glad you got it working.
