Passing dynamic filter values through URL Filters in embedded report

Hi!

 

I have an embedded power BI report, which is embedded in a different web tool. That tool has 3 filter values which need to be passed into the report and then the report should open reflecting the filtered data.

I was able to embed the report in the tool and that's opening just fine. But I'm not able to pass the filter values that the user would select.

 

I know that I'm supposed to use my embedded report URL from iFrame, add &filter=<table_name>/<column_name> eq '<value>'

But what should I put in place of <value> so that the user would get result for A, B, or C depending on their selection?

 

Any help would be highly appreciated. For reference, this was achieved using Tableau like this: <Tableau embedded report URL>&Parameters.Instance="+       this.instance+"&Parameters.Pipeline%20Id="+this.pipeline_id+"&Parameters.Propensity="+this.propensity+"#1"

 

where,  Instance, Pipeline, and Propensity are my parameters.

 

Thanks in Advance!

Hi @Rida 

1.You can build experiences using basic HTML and JavaScript.

You can refer to the following link.

Use filters when embedding a report in Power BI embedded analytics | Microsoft Learn.

 

2.The URL filter has some limitations on embedded report.

  •   Embed to Sharepoint doesn't support URL filters.
  • Teams doesn't allow specifying a URL.

You can refer to the following link.
