Using the new button slicer to navigate to a bookmark on selection

[Sinky22]

Is there a way to use the new button slicer to navigate to a bookmark?

I want to have a dynamic set of buttons that open and switch to different bookmarks. The button values are based on filtered table content

@Sinky22 Hi! not directly — the “new button slicer” (or slicer visuals) can’t inherently trigger a bookmark. But you can simulate that behavior using bookmarks + buttons + DAX measures / conditional navigation.

Workaround:

1. Create a small table (disconnected) listing the names of your bookmarks (or pages)

2. Use that table in a slicer

3. Create a measure that returns the selected bookmark (or page name)

4. On a button, set “Action → Bookmark (or Page)” and use the “fx” (conditional formatting) to pick the destination based on that measure

This gives you effectively a dynamic “button slicer” — albeit the slicer only picks the destination name, and you still click the button to activate navigation.
