Passing URL Parameters - Inconsistent Results

Hi, when passing parameters in a URL I am getting inconsitant results. When following the exact same URL sometimes I am directed to the correct Power BI report with the correct filters applied. Other times I am directed to the Power BI service but with a blank screen. This results in my users having to close and reopen the link multiple times until the report shows.

 

Why would this be? An example below, although you won't be able to view it, is there something obvious I'm doing wrong? Seems strange that it can work and then suddenly not work, and then work again.

@dm1904 ,

 

Please refer to considerations and limitations below:

  • When using the in operator, the values to the right of in must be a comma-separated list enclosed in parentheses.
  • In Power BI Report Server, you can pass report parameters by including them in a report URL. These URL parameters aren't prefixed because they're passed directly to the report processing engine.
  • Query string filtering doesn't work with Publish to web.
  • Embed with report web part in SharePoint Online doesn't support URL filters.
  • The long data type is (2^53-1) due to Javascript limitations.
  • Report URL filters have a 10-expression limit (10 filters connected by AND).
