Drill-Through

Navigating from a summary value to a separate detail page or report, filtered to the selected context.

Definition

In Power BI, a drill-through page defines drill-through fields; right-clicking a data point carries that filter to the target page. Tableau achieves the same with filter or Go to Sheet actions.

Example

Right-click a customer in a sales chart to open a Customer Details page.

Exam tip

Power BI drill-through requires adding the field to the target page's drill-through well.
