Having the ability to utilize a single dataset to filter on multiple Power BI reports as an app level filter would be a game changer for us.


The way I think about it is like this:

  1. Power BI Reports are published to a workspace and combined into an app
  2. Developer could then upload a "filter" dataset that has distinct values that has matching columns in each of the data sources for the published reports.
  3. Once uploaded, the filter dataset could be applied to specific datasets within the reports
  4. This would essentially mirror the best practice of having a star schema to filter datasets from
  5. This could then be added as a filter in the app to allow the users of the application to filter all datasets within the app at the same time.
