Share a filtered Power BI report

  • Чланак

APPLIES TO: Power BI Desktop Power BI service

Sharing is a good way to give a few people access to your reports and dashboards. What if you want to share a filtered version of a report? Maybe you want the report to show only data for a specific city or salesperson or year. This article explains how to filter a report and share the filtered version of the report.

You can share the filtered report in several different ways:

In every case, the report is filtered when recipients first open it. They can clear the filter selections in the report. In this example, we're filtering the report page to show only values where Business Area equals Distribution, Infrastructure, or Manufacturing.

Sharing report with filter

Another way to share a filtered report is to add query parameters to the report URL. Again, the report is filtered when recipients first open it. They can clear the filter selections in the report.

Power BI also offers other ways to collaborate and distribute your reports. With sharing, you and your recipients need a Power BI Pro license, or the content needs to be in a Premium capacity. To learn more about interacting with reports that have been shared with you, see Working with content shared with you.

  1. Open a report in Reading view and apply a filter.

  2. Select Share and make sure Include my changes is selected:

Considerations and limitations

Things to keep in mind about sharing reports:

  • When you share a semantic model by managing permissions, by sharing reports or dashboards, or by publishing an app, you're granting access to the entire semantic model unless row-level security (RLS) limits access. Report authors may use capabilities that customize user experiences when viewing or interacting with reports, for example hiding columns, limiting the actions on visuals, and others. These customized user experiences don't restrict what data users can access in the semantic model. Use row-level security (RLS) in the semantic model so that each person's credentials determine which data they can access.
  • The shared report view will automatically expire after 180 days. Each time the link shared report view is accessed the expiration is reset to 180 days.
  • You can't share reports that are distributed to you in an app. Ask the app owner to add the person you want to share the report with, and republish the app.
  • Share link to selection for visuals in reports creates a shared view with the visual in spotlight mode.
