Sharing a URL to a Report and Setting filter values
It would unlock a powerful value add for us if we could link to a number of our Power BI reports and be able to set the filter values for them.
Is there a documented list of supported URL parameters for Power BI that I've missed? How might I accomplish this scenario?
An example scenario:
We have 1000s of products we sell, with data on all of them. We have an existing 'product' report that drills down into an individual product's performance, with a page level filter that the user can edit to select the product they want to see. We have these products listed elsewhere on an existing website, [in the absence of embedding support] we'd like to link to the report for each product individually.

Awesome!
It would be double awesome if we were able to set the report's filter values too so that in the web app we could embed reports that had context!
