Refresh Auto Insights to Include Filters

When you add filters to your workbook or make new selections for existing filters, you can refresh Auto Insights to see updated insights that take into account the new filters and filter selections.

Auto Insights considers filters in the filter bar, dashboard filters, and visualization filters. For more information about filters, see Filter Data.
If you add one of these updated insights to your canvas and it has a custom calculation that also uses the filter, the calculation appears under My Calculations in the Data pane with (Filtered) in front of its name.
