Issue with PDF Export not Reflecting Slicer Selections as i selected in power bi service
Description:
Hello [Support/Team],
I’m experiencing an issue while exporting a Power BI report to PDF. Here's the scenario:
- In the report, I have different slicers
- The default slicers are set to the current year and current month, but i have selected 2024 and other slicer selections.
- When I use the Current Values and Exclude Hidden report tabs option in the export settings, the report doesn’t reflect the slicer selections as I see on the screen.
Can you help me understand why the slicer selections aren't carried over in the export, and if there’s anything I can do to ensure the exported report matches the slicer-based filters?
Looking forward to your assistance!
Hello naveenanda_vam
This is a known issue with Power BI’s PDF export functionality not properly respecting slicer selections.
Try using the “Print to PDF” approach.
Teu disable the “Persistent Filters” option in your report settings
