The current bookmarking feature requires report creators to define bookmarks. Ideally, users would be able to save personalized bookmarks (similar to web browser) in addition to the author's pre-defined bookmarks.

For example, I might have a project management report or sales by stores. Each user of the report may have their own set of projects or stores that they want to quickly navigate between. These are relevant to the current users and not other users of the reports.

Thank you for all for being patient. I'm excited to announce that we're bringing personal bookmarks to all reports in the Power BI service. It's started to roll out today - check out my blog for more details: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/announcing-personal-bookmarks-in-the-power-bi-service/

RE: Personalized Bookmarks

For many of our apps this is a "must have" before we can roll out to users. For larger data files with many slice-n-dice filter variables it would take a user for ever to navigate to their individual display(s) each time. With out this, due to amount of time a user would spend, it would result in no one wanting to use it.

RE: Personalized Bookmarks

REALLY need this feature - we are releasing reports to over 2000 users soon and it is pretty embarrassing that they need to say "Please have a look at this, and don't forget to set 15 slicers as I am instructing you to, otherwise we are not looking at the same numbers." When sharing their insights with their collegues...
Any news on when this is rolled out?

Using on-premise version. This is one of the main features that would prevent me from using Power BI for most of my customers. They need to be able to save specific slicer combinations. Ideally, they should be able to create a link to that bookmark as well.

I think this needs to be prioritized more than it currently is. Giving the end user the capability of setting filters down to what they need and saving those screens is such a huge feature that would improve the use of reporting. Was disappointed not to see it in the most recent update

Please updates on when the personal bookmark feature will be ready. And when it is ready, will it be available in both PBI Server as well as PBI Report Server environments? Thanks!
