Slicer Sort Issue

I have a report that has two slicers and a multi-row card.  I have published the report to our organizations Power BI site and I have no problems using the report.   I have invited one user to use the report and when she clicks on the slicers the data does not change.  I selected the default settings when I invited her.  Is there a special permission that I need to alter so she can use the slicers on the report. 

 

I have also placed the report on a dashboard.  Any help is greatly appriciated!

Thanks,

Bree

No. How did you share?  Did you share a dashboard, or invite her into a shared workspace?  Have you set up any row level security in your report?

I will not give you bad advice, even if you unknowingly ask for it.

I did both:  the report is on a dashboard and I shared the dashboard with her.  I accepted all of the defaults when I shared the report and have not changed any security.  I don't know how to change it yet.  🙂

It beats me. When stuff goes wrong, I normally try to test various things to try to isolate the problem.  If it is a share workspace, has she subscribed to the pro features?  Even the free trial?  I have seen instances where people say no when first prompted, then it is hard to trigger the prompt again. Try the cog on the right top corner.
