Filters usage by multiple endusers

Hi,

Folllowing is the situation: Enduser is going into their respective workspace to view a dashboard. By doing so he/she sets various slicers/filters on the dashboard to see the required data. 
Another enduser is accessing the same workspace/dashboard and sees the data already filtred to what the previous enduser set it to. This makes it quite confusing for some endusers, especially those who expect a clean, unfiltered dashboard when they visit the workspace.

 

I would expect that the filter settings are unique to each visitor. I.e. Multiple visitors to the same dashboard, at the same time can utilize thier own filters without interfering with each other? Why is this not so? Is there any way to have this implemented or how to ensure at the very least that filters are reset after each visitor? 

 

Thanks

Hi @Anonymous ,

You can try to turn on the Persistent Filters option to prevent end user changes on your filters or consider about using personal bookmarks:
