The bookmark feature looks great. Would it be useful if there is added functionality which allows subscriptions to be on bookmarks for a report?

This functionality has shipped! See the blog post for more details: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/blog/subscribe-to-a-report-with-filters-applied/

RE: Subscriptions to Bookmarks

I feel like this should be merged with the following idea and / or implemented along with this idea that's already planned:https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=9358ee2a-c1af-4f2d-9d71-31029d442527

RE: Subscriptions to Bookmarks

Yes please!!! This will give the report users the possibility to subscribe to filtered views of the report. I really can't understand why this has not been done from the start.This will also open up for the possibility to subscribe to hidden pages (frequently used when we replace the standard page navigation with built-in navigation buttons)The current implementation is in fact not that usable since 1) The users (or the admin) can't created a subscription on a hidden page, and 2) The user (or the admin) can't choose pre-defined filters.

RE: Subscriptions to Bookmarks

Agree this would be great. We have reports that are org-wide and a given sub-team will filter the reports to the data that is relevant to them. There are 20+ sub-teams. We can create links to these bookmarks, but being able to subscribe and get a weekly email with the bookmarked view would be extremely helpful.

Please complete ASAP. This would transform the way and usefulness of BI in my organisation.

I'm with David Royal and everyone else who's commented about ditching the 900+ votes for this feature that existed on the idea that got merged here. This feature is an absolute must. *Please* implement it.

RE: Subscriptions to Bookmarks

Definitely need this for our folks in the org that do not learn new technology fast so that we can get them the information they need to run the business!

RE: Subscriptions to Bookmarks

The Idea that this was merged from has 950+ votes. Those votes should be applied here as well.

RE: Subscriptions to Bookmarks

Why don't you take over the votes for merged ideas?!

RE: Subscriptions to Bookmarks

In fact, it is almost useless as a feature for corporations if you cannot personalize the filtering to your bookmarks.

RE: Subscriptions to Bookmarks

This does not "Need Votes". The merged idea has 900, and this is just misrepresenting the need for this. For users who are less tech savvy, or certain leadership, they prefer to have a subscription bring them to a report with their relevant data immediately showing, ie, filters. Without a subscription that references bookmarks or filters, making a flexible, capable report is useless for those that prefer e-mail.
