Visual level filter is ignored on Power BI Service
Hi,
It looks like I've found what was the problem. I have created selection of bookmarks. And when I created a bookmark for this particular page with this visual, I hadn't had the filter applied yet. So I applied the filter one more time how I want the visual to be and then created a bookmark. Now for all report viewers the filter is applied when they press on bookmark button.
I'm still quite new in Power BI so I didn't know that filters affect also the bookmarks.
Thank you for the help anyway!

Super UserHi there
Yes that is currently by design so that every person can have their own view.
When a person first views the report they will have the author's default state.
You can also change this setting if you do not want it to be applied in your PBIX under options then put in the tick under Persistent Filters
Hi,
Sounds like this could solve the problem so that the end users only see the original filters (the ones that have been saved and published from the Desktop). I checked/marked this field but it didn't help for some report's end users. They still see this visual without that filter and the sorting is also not the same as in the Desktop - in Desktop the sorting is based on amount, but on the Service the sorting is displayed based on the name for that end user. See the screenshot below. Reset to default button is not active anymore (it says that report owner has disabled this option or something). And again that filter is ignored.

Hi there
Could you also look and confirm if this setting is the same in the Power BI Service on the report settings?
