Hi all,
I create a specific Power BI report for doing an extensive selection of values/attributes and allow the user to call another report ans passing the params via URL. One of the attributes I need to pass is a from/to date combination which is calculated in the report for the selection. The report being called, contains a date table which should be filtered according to the from/to date I pass via an URL parameter.
The filter string that's being created is the following:
"filter=ReferenceDate/Date ge 2011-01-01 and ReferenceDate/Date le 2019-12-31"
However, when passing this to the target report, the filter is not applied. It works if I only pass one filter condition for the
reference date, but if I add both to select a range, the filter is not applied:
"filter=ReferenceDate/Date ge 2011-01-01" or "filter=ReferenceDate/Date le 2019-12-31"
Did anyone run into the same issues? Is this by design or is something wrong with my filter condition?
Thanks
Hi Ibendlin,
indeed, something might be wrong, but I don't know what. Passing one date works perfectly but I need to pass a filter between two days with a start and an end date for the same field in the date dimension. Unfortunately, there is nothing about that in the documentation.
Which one woks and which one doesn't? ODATA3 or ODATA4? Have you tried using ISO-8601 format?
Something may be wrong with your filter definition.
The documentation has examples on how date values need to be presented for ODATA3 and ODATA4.
