Embed dashboard with parameter

I have created a dashboard and I want to embed a specific page (the 3rd page) in another web application with a parameter. On this page, I have a filter (a dropdown list control) that allows single selection with names. I want to pass the selected name as a parameter in the other application so that end users only see data and information related to this name. The control field is named 'Name_of_the_lead_implementing_', which I have renamed to 'Grantee'. An example of a value in this dropdown list is 'The Green Road'.

I made some attempts like this:

- lookerstudio.google.com/reporting/myreport/page/p_gcxggzq6hd?params=%7B%22 Name_of_the_lead_implementing_%22:%22The%20Green%20Road%22%7D

Hello @MariosLiodakis did you find any solution for this ? am running into the same issue

Hello @DZlAmir , yes, I found a solution. You need to go to the tab 'File' -> 'Report Settings' and check the box for 'Enable viewer filters in report link.' This will include the parameter in the URL. I also hid the control filter and sent a specific link to each end user. 

I see you've sent a different link to each user, do you know if it is possible, as you've mentioned before, to create an embedded dashbaord that is filtered automatically by passing lets say the username as a parameter so the dashbaord is dynamically filtered to show the user only his relevant data

the only way i found to do this, is without embedded links

in the data source, you join it with another access table (that has each email and filter value from there you can use the looker studio email address parameter to check if the user in the table or not
