I need some help with drill through. I have a main dashboard with high level aggregated data. I need to drill through to a details report I have created with more granular data. The chart type I have used in the dashboard is a CARD, to which it should drill down from. Only thing is when I right click it does not give the drill option. I have added the relevant field into the details report but still no rightclick --> drill through. Any advice would be great. Could this be a limitation with Power BI?

I agree that it's poor form not to have this sort of functionality. I've tried multiple workarounds, using other visualisations without success. The only thing that i can get to work is to have the card, and overlay a button on top of it (making sure that the button is transparent), which links to a bookmark on that page that i want to 'drill through' to.
