Could you please add some sort of "Trigger" element to a page. This can be used to trigger a bookmark on opening a page in a report. You can use this, for example, to automatically clear all filters when opening the page.

RE: Trigger bookmark on Page open

This is a very nice feature. You can use it for example to set the month and year to the current month and the current year, when opening on a certain page in Power BI. Certain reports gain from this kind of automatic help to the user. You can also for example default show a report with invoices when opening on the specific page to see invoice lines. This as opposed to viewing open order lines or quotations. A trigger allows to set all kind of fields with a default value. This is not the same as a page filter. The user just gets offered an initial setting, which can be overwritten.

On page load, trigger bookmark would be an excellent feature!

RE: Trigger bookmark on Page open


This would enable the setting of a default view for a page. Currently the only way to set a default view (ie filtered) is by selecting a component with a bookmark action. I would like a bookmark triggered by selecting a page.
