It seems an enhancement of bookmarks will be to allow the external linking directly to a bookmark definition. I could see many uses for this.
Some examples:
-Sending a user a link that takes them directly to the bookmarked content vs a link to the report & then instructions on how to select the proper bookmark.
-Directly linking to a bookmark definition from another report.
-For a report that provides status for multiple business units, divisions, or regions, being able to provide a launching page directly to a bookmark will eliminate confusion & mouse clicks.
-This could be used to provide a direct link between a dashboard tile & bookmark defined filtering in the report page.
I hope I am explaining my idea in an understandable way.

RE: Enable direct bookmark links
This feature would be very helpful for our use cases. Currently, we are using the bookmark URL but report opens in default page or the last selected filtering of the user.
Any updates on this topic, is it planned to be implemented in future?
RE: Enable direct bookmark links
Yes please implement this (for PBI Report Server in my case). Filtering by Url Parameters is great and the same should be possible for bookmarks. Opens endless possibilities ...
RE: Enable direct bookmark links
This function will improve a lot transition between reports/dashboards and smoothen presentation flow, especially for reports deployed to Power BI Report Server.

Julie, in answer to your comment: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/filter-a-report-with-a-url-query-string-parameter/
RE: Enable direct bookmark links
It would be very helpful if report filters could be specified at the end of the URL like URL's for reports or report pages.
That would allow me to build dynamic links to bookmarks with filters customized to for the current user.
