Bookmarks

[mz03]

Hello, 

I created several reports in Power BI Desktop with bookmarks that filter for a specific entity. To access the bookmarks via the website, I saved the url for each bookmark, eg.: app.powerbi.com/groups/abc/reports/abc123/ReportSection?bookmarkGuid=Bookmarkxyz123 . This worked fine in the past and I could download the bookmarked report with filtered value as PDF. 

Today I noticed that the behavior changed: When I enter the url of the bookmark I get redirected to app.powerbi.com/groups/abc/reports/abc123/ReportSection  and the report is not filtered for the fields specified in the bookmark and the default values are shown. The link to the bookmark has not changed (I can see the same url when I manually choose the bookmark via the bookmark pane).

Do you know why this is happening?

Thanks, 

Michael

Hi @mz03,

I test on my side and these still work, I'd like to suggest you check your bookmark URL to confirm it if any change applies to it.
In addition, I'd like to suggest you create buttons and binding action with specific bookmarks. It will navigation to a specific bookmark even if you change on these bookmarks.
