User bookmarks not updated with changes in report
- Anonymous6 months ago
Hi r_van_kooten,
Power BI keeps personal bookmarks and persistent filters turned on by default because it’s built mainly for self service use, where users expect their saved views to stay exactly as they left them. it’s about flexibility and user convenience. However, in more controlled or enterprise environments, this can create a risk if report filters are changed later, since old personal bookmarks won’t update and users may see outdated results without realizing it. Because there’s no built in way to refresh or invalidate those bookmarks, organizations that need stricter control usually disable persistent filters and rely on report level bookmarks instead.
Thanks & Regards,

Thanx for the reply! If this is the answer, we wonder why in Power BI this feauture is on an 'always-on' mode unless...shouldn't it be 'always-off, unless...' ....i think many users and organization aren't aware of this risk of seeing not up-to-date information.
