I have a scenario where I want to have just one page on my report not be affected by a filter I have in place on the "Filters on all pages" option on the filters flyout. If there was an option to apply apply filters to selected pages instead of all or only one, that would be helpful.

RE: Exception pages to Filters on all pages

This would be really useful, I have a few dashboards which need to have a filter across all pages but the user wants a summary tab to show the information without the filters, this isn't really possible.Coming from Tableau this is a feature I miss.

RE: Exception pages to Filters on all pages

I have a use case where I have a bunch of similar pages that are all managed by a report level filter, but have one page that needs to be filtered differently than the rest. I am also exporting each page to a powerpoint presentation using the new-ish export features. In Power Point I can allow users to adjust the filters in the Power Point - very cool! Now back to my report, I would just use sync slicers to handle the exception page, EXCEPT, if I use slicers, users in the Power Point can no longer change the filtering, so I have to use only report level and page level filters to get the job done. Because there is not an exception option to report level filters, AND no option to move filters between report level and page level, I have to recreate all report level filters page by page, very painful and limits users of the published BI report from having a seamless experience with filtering, since they now have to change filters on each page when doing analysis.My recommendation - please create the ability to 1) convert report level filters to page level (for all pages simultaneously). 2) Create an exception feature where you can designate a page as not being affected by report level filters. AND 3) in the PowerPoint feature, make it so slicer filtering is treated the same way as report and page level filtering so that users can change options in the side bar of the PowerPoint slide.

Yes. This is really needed.An option to manage the Filters Pane by exception.

RE: Exception pages to Filters on all pages

Some UI similar to sync slicers would be great. I like the filter pane (consistent UI that doesn't take up report page space), but I'd love to keep the control I have with a bunch of slicers.
