Reset all actions - interactive filters in Google Data Studio


Is there any way to force 'reset action' on all interactive filters in a google data studio report without needing to press F5 or refresh the browser page? My users will want the ability to be able to reset actions in a button.

So far I've tried:

  • Creating a URL pointing to the report with no parameters, this doesn't refresh the report or reset the filters.

Any ideas?


Solution

  • For future reference, the 15 Apr 2021 Update introduced the respective Reset functionality in Google Data Studio:

    Reset report filters and selections
    Report viewers can now use the new Reset report. Reset button to reset all filters and selections they've made. This restores the report to its default view state.
