How to activate the drill-through feature on a published dashbaord

Hi guys,

 

I have succesfully created drill-through reports on the power BI desktop and it's been exciting. However, I noticed that the drill-through feature is not working on the published dashboards. Please could someone show me how to make it work?

 

Thanks.

We can only use drillthrough in your reports but not dashboards. When one user tries to access the shared dashboard, he/she needs to click the dashboard tile to go to the corresponding report page, then he/she can use the drillthrough function there.

 

Best Regards,
