What is bidirectional cross-filtering in Power BI?

Bidirectional cross-filtering in Power BI Desktop allows data modellers to specify how filters should flow for data based on table connections. The filter context is transferred to a second related table on the other side of a table connection using bidirectional cross-filtering. Data modellers may use this to address the many-to-many problem without having to write sophisticated DAX calculations. As a result, bidirectional cross-filtering makes data modellers’ jobs easier.
