I am relatively new to Power BI and have been leveraging as many resources as I can to bring myself up to speed quickly. This is an amazing tool to use for visualizations but it definitely has restrictions that I'm working through. Currently, I am looking for a way to make the slicers on my report automatically update when another visualization is clicked (i.e. single bar on a bar chart). I have edited my interactions so that the slicers are set to filter on changes from the bar chart, but the selections in the slicers still do not update. If I make a change to another slicer, it works fine.
An example of what I am trying to accomplish is as such:
Any thoughts of how to make this happen? If it is not a feature already available, is there possibly a workaround through scripting?
Hi @Anonymous,
The requirement that to update the slicer according to the selection in another visualization is not achievable. Interaction filters doesn't work from visualization to slicer. For this feature request, you could submit an idea at this page.

Thank you for your response Yuliana. I must admit that I am more than a little surprised that such basic functionality has not been considered before now in such a powerful tool. Seeing my objective, to be able to filter across pages using visualizations, is there a way that this can be done? My whole objective with updating a slicer with the visualization click is so that the slicer would then dynamically update another page that contains the supporting data for my dashboard. Is this feasible with Power BI, or should I abandon Power BI and look for another solution?
Thanks again

You can enable the sync slicer across report pages following this document.
