url doens't work when pinning a live page to dashboard

[Anonymous]

Hi, 

I know when users click a visual in in a dashboard, by default setup, they will be led to the original PB report, where the visual is stored. However, it looks like the url doesn't work when I pin the full page to dashboard. 

Is a solution to this. I want to pin the whole page to the dashboard so that users can user filters in the dashboard, but how to keep the link behind the dashboard at the same time?

Hi @Anonymous ,

Clicking on the visual effects in a live page will not enter the corresponding report. Because this is how it is designed.

One way to add a dashboard tile is from within a Power BI report. When you select one of these tiles, it opens in the report.

An entire report page can be pinned to a dashboard, which is called pinning a live tile. It's called a live tile because you can interact with the tile on the dashboard. Unlike with individual visualization tiles, changes made in the report are automatically synced with the dashboard. 

Pin an entire report page
Another option is to pin an entire report page to a dashboard, which is an easy way to pin more than one visualization at a time. When you pin an entire page, the tiles are live. That is, you can interact with them there on the dashboard. Changes you make to any of the visualizations in the report editor, like adding a filter or changing the fields used in the chart, are reflected in the dashboard tile as well.

For more information, see Pin an entire report page.

Hi @Anonymous 

Once you create a dashboard the URL should not change. 

You can then use the Dashboard URL to access the dashboard and then interact with the live page?

No  the url doesn't work when I pinned the full live page.

Hi @Anonymous ,

I recently discovered that you can enter the report by clicking the title in the live page. You can try it.

That's my problem. I can't access the report via the url. I think it happens because I have pinned the whole page to dashboard. If I only pin a tile, the url works.
