Slice filter doesnt apply to Export to PowerPoint
I cannot repro the same issue on my side. The exported PPT can retain the slicer selection and data is filtered in the visual. Please refer to the video below and let me know if there is any difference between our repro steps. Please make sure that you've saved your report after you select something in the slicer.
BTW, In-session interactivity such as highlighting and filtering, drill-down, and so on, are not yet supported when exporting to PowerPoint. The exported PowerPoint shows the original visuals as they were saved in the report.

Whilst saving the report and then exporting is a mutli step work around, it is not a user inutative solution.
If you change the filter on the report and see the changed data being displayed, you would expect that the "export" would export that data to Powerpoint.
Having users "save" each time they change a filter to a poor solution.
Getting visuals out of PowerBI is a real issue, as in many instances you have to include a single or a number of visuals into a non-PowerBI report, like a submission and the like. Exporting a entire dashboard is not a targetted solution. Added to this you cannot export more that 15 pages ro Powerpoint is a big headache as well, if you have a detailed report and only want to export a few pages or visuals.
I'm having the same issue and the users that need to export to Power BI but do not have the option to edit or save, nor do I want the to. I agree that the export should reflect what current filters have been selected. It should look like what you see on the screen!
I certainly hope they can fix this!
Has any one found the solution for this issue for users with read rights only?
I have a users that is trying to filter a hand full of reports and export the data into PowerPoint but it is not working.
I was able to reproduce the error.
Did you manage to find a solution for users with read rights only? I have the same issue...
