Org Apps Slicer Issue

I have put two reports into the new Org App feature. However, I'm having an issue with the slicers not maintaining the last used settings between sessions.

 

Every time I come back into a report, whether moving between reports or coming back into the Org App, the slicers are reset to whatever the intial default slicer settings were. It will not maintian my slicer settings. This is not an issue with Workspace Apps and makes Org Apps not worth pursuing at this point.

 

Any idea what could be causing this or when a fix will be available?

Hello @arock-well

Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum and for sharing your idea link.

 

We appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We understand your desire to use Org Apps, but as they are currently in preview, they're not yet fully released. To ensure a stable and productive experience, we recommend using Workspace apps for the time being.

We're actively working on improving and expanding Org Apps, and we thank you for your patience.

What is the timeline to fully release Org Apps?

Hello @arock-well ,

 

I have consulted with our internal experts regarding this matter. Currently, it is clear that Microsoft is actively working on it. As per the documetation Estimated release timeline: Q2 2025.

Thanks for that. However, it still says "Public Preview" for those updates. Do you know when it will go to General Availability?

Hello @arock-well,

 

This is a known limitation in certain scenarios.

 

I would perhaps recommend creating bookmarks for common slicer settings and train users to use them to restore preferred configurations quickly.

 

Alternatively - If users frequently select specific slicer values, consider setting default slicer values dynamically using parameters or calculated measures. While this won't persist selections, it can ensure the most relevant defaults are always loaded.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, this is a deal breaker for using an Org App instead of a traditional Workspace App.

 

We don't have time to create unique bookmarks and train users in Org Apps to get them to do something that is already inherent within Workspace Apps that they're already used to. We had planned on using Org Apps in an upcoming release of reports, but will probably have to keep using Workspace Apps unless this is resolved soon.
