Is there any possiblity to hide Filters pane in Power BI Report server. We don't want to show the filters been used to external clients in our report for unnecessary discussion on calls.

Something like &filterPaneEnabled=false in Power BI Report Server

None of my end users need to see it, it will confuse the users.

Idk why this feature was not in built, the report is for final consumption in most scenarios and showing the filter pane adds more confusion for click friendly business users.

Yes, the filter pane is a pain. None of my end users need to see it, give me the option of turning it off.

Another option would be to be at the individual filter level:

- Have the option for the user to interact (include additional available values). Not all general filters warrant a slicer and corresponding screen real-estate.
- Disallow the changing/removal of specific filters (as it would invalidate the results).
