Query re filtering a dashboard/tile within a Power App

[powerappin]

Hi,

I have a Power App which the user completes a survey against an external contact which generates a reponse set against CDS. This response then has a score associated with it and the we want to track and capture the customers last 3 responses to show them the improvement they have had over a period of time on the last page of the Power App.

We are utilising the standard Power BI connector in Power App to link to my workspace/dashboard. My query is I have seen via my searches that it is possible to filter via a parameter within the report eg region/Unique ID etc. I am just querying whether this can be completed the same for a dashboard and passed through within the Power App?

I will have the ID stored as a variable so querying as to whether this will be achievable to pass the variable through via this method - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/controls/control-power-bi-tile

.

Does anyone have experience with this?

Hi @powerappin ,

Filtering feature has the following limitations:

• Only one filter can be applied.
• Only the eq operator is supported.
• Field type must be string.

You can also ask for more help in this forum:https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Mobile-Apps/bd-p/power-bi-mobile 

Best Regards,
Liang

I am back onto this now and have a question...

I get how I can filter it via a string but is that available within a dashboard? From reading this it is only available within a report: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/collaborate-share/service-url-filters

My PowerApp records survey responses to CDS and then my Power BI Dashboard should filter that dashboard via a variable stored within the app (ID). 

Hoping someone has experience with this and Power Apps working well together?
