In our Report Server deployment the most frequent request by end users is: “Give me a prefiltered (eg. by departement) version of the standard report so that I will not have to spend time on filtrering” - the request is valid - but with more than 100 departments maintaining such a setup becomes extremely time consuming - therefore I suggest bringing Persistent Filters to Report Server - it would dramatically reduce the time needed to maintian a enterprise
scale BI deployment - and would be a kikker-feature for Power BI Report Server (and align features beteeen cloud and on-prem)

RE: Persistent Filters

This is needed badly by our organization.

RE: Persistent Filters

It would be great, if you offer this feature for the on-premise customer, too!
A lot of internal customers want to have it. And there is no workaround

RE: Persistent Filters

We really need this function to make it easier for users to work with large reports!

RE: Persistent Filters

As these https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/announcing-persistent-filters-in-the-service/ are now Generally Available and launched since (March 12, 2018) update. Does this mean we are getting these soon to be announced update in Power BI Report Server?

RE: Persistent Filters

Perhaps implementing Personal Bookmarks in PBIRS could also satisfy this requirement as well?

RE: Persistent Filters

The slick interactive controls allow us to present data in engaging and effective ways without reinventing a bunch of wheels. This is great stuff -- until we found out we cannot get it to our users without sending them a bunch of "clutter." We could already do that. Persistent filtering would allow us to use this and it will surely be popular.

A valuable addition to allow us to present information to our users.

RE: Persistent Filters

Would really like to see this on premise (PBIRS) in the same format as cloud service

RE: Persistent Filters

It would be great if this could be done as linked reports with SSRS
