Support that ability to automatically to rotate through different dashboards/charts on a public display (presentation mode). The creator should be able to script the actions, such as change filters or change charts as certain time intervals

Thanks for the suggestion! That sounds really useful, if anyone else agrees please add your votes!

I'll second the ability to rotate through Bookmarks or Report Pages with updated dataset

We used "Rotisserie URL Rotator " extension for chrome browser to achieve this.We are able to load different dashboards URL's(dashboard implemented using DirectQuery mode) and get new data everytime.

Can set timeinterval for each URL to.

RE: Support that ability to automatically to rotate through different charts on a public display

agreed... would be nice to set bookmarks and then the order and "Play" them in a continuous fashion.
Also would be nice to be able to somehow have not only different bookmarks "play" through, but also different reports/dashboards "Play" through in continuous rotation.
This is a HIGHLY UTILIZED and DEMANDED function in business today and I am honestly very shocked there is no way to do it currently in Power BI. PLEASE ADD THIS ASAP!! Thanks!

I would say this is viable both for both reports and dashboards. Reports specifically to cycle through bookmarks or pages in a report, but dashboards for cycling through multiple dashboards in a given workspace

Also including chromecast functionality would be great.

RE: Support that ability to automatically to rotate through different charts on a public display

We also display multiple pages on a TV and cycle through browser tabs which is very error prone.

Additionally we would like to show a line chart with filter rotation (configurable, like 10 seconds per filter entry). Example: Single Line-Chart with a time axis and and ton of entries (categories) in the legend. We can't show all categories at once. It's too much data. But one category after the other would be nice.

We use multi-tab KPI tracking sheets permanently posted to a TV. We would like the option to automatically tab through each page every few minutes.

Right now we are exporting to powerpoint, applying transitions, then exporting the powerpoint as a video. This would be a far more elegant solution!
