Is it possible to drill down to a List type detail report from a visualization?

Hello. Is it possible to drill-down to a list type detail report from a visualization in Power BI?

 

I see the option to "drill-down" however that only drills down to a lower level within the visualization. I need to drill down to a list style report showing the details of whatever was clicked.

 

For example, if I have a visualization showing all of a banks Branches and the total deposits. I want to be able to click on a branch # and have Power BI take me to a detail list report showing, Branch numbner, account numbers, all of the deposits for that branch, address, customer name etc etc.

 

Thank you

Currently there is no way to directly drill down from a visual to a list. Effectively you'd have to have a way to turn any other visual into a list.

 

My current solution is to add a table or matrix visual with the indivudual element columns and put it next to some other visual that works well as a selector, usually a bar chart or a pie chart depending on the specific case. The table acts as the list and it gets crossfiltered by selections.

 

For example, here's one of my report pages.

You can select a week across the bottom of the page, then select any other element such as an individual recruiter or account manager and the list on the left will adjust. That list is the lowest granularity in my report, so it produces the same information as the type of drill-down you're looking for. Not as tidy as actually drilling down within a single visual but it's something.
