Reports that requires authentication to access - the report URL needs to be accessed anonymous.
Save filters within the reports (Filters, slicers, and bookmarks) is not supported.
Only the default page is added (it is not possible to target a specific page, only the default one).

relative date filters without a default value
tuple filters
hierarchy filters
custom (from MS Store) filters
