Hi,
I have an issue where reports publieshed to Service (normal Workspace) do not fully respect the filters created in the Desktop.
Steps:
Report seemingly behaves normally in both Service and Web published version, however in Service if you click a button with a Bookmark or select a Bookmark directly and then refresh the page with F5, all the filters will reset to what they originally were when the Bookmarks were created.
I managed to get around it by updated every single Bookmark with the new filters for each report.
Is this a bug or intended behaviour?

Hi @Rbernhardt,
>>The bookmarks were created in the Desktop client and should overwrite any other rule.
I think you not so clear about my description. Currently, you can feel free do edit operations on power bi desktop side.
When you work on power bi service side, it does not save changes that users apply on reading view mode, they will be restored if web page reloaded. (power bi service save the changes when you modify in 'edit' mode and click on the 'save' button)
For that scenario, I'd like to suggest you use 'personal bookmark' feature to saving these changes. (you need to tell your users to save their operations and turn on 'mark as default view' to keep the filter effect as the default view)
After these steps, save filter effects will auto applied when that user views to current report.

Hi @Rbernhardt,
When you click on buttons who binding to specific bookmarks with filters to enable filter effects, these changes and filters effect not really save to the report side. So these changes will be restored when you refresh or reload the report.
Maybe you can try to use a personal bookmark feature to save the custom filter of different users and save them as default view:

Thanks for the reply. The bookmarks were created in the Desktop client and should overwrite any other rule.
