Why each option
Using a slicer within a Power BI element and configuring the tile's TileURL to pass the selected record's context is the correct approach for record-context filtering.
The Power BI tile control in a canvas app supports dynamic filtering through its TileURL property. By adding a slicer to the underlying Power BI report and driving that slicer via filter parameters appended dynamically to the TileURL - referencing the selected record - the Power BI control will update its data to reflect the current record context. This is the supported pattern for bidirectional context passing between canvas apps and Power BI.
Rejecting this solution would be incorrect because Microsoft explicitly supports using slicers and dynamic TileURL filter parameters to synchronize Power BI content with the selected record in a canvas app.
