    Hello Use cross-report drillthrough on a shared dataset it preserves filter context natively. If you must use URL filters, ensure theflter= parameter matches the exact model table/column name (DimStudy/study_id, not the display name), and point to the workspace report URL rather than the App URL.

Cross-report drillthrough is the recommended approach for passing filter context between reports in the same App:

  1. In the target report, go to a page → Format pane → enable Cross-report drillthrough
  2. Add study_id to the Drillthrough fields well on that page
  3. In the source report, right-click a visual that has study_id in context → Drillthrough → target report page
