Add security to show/hide any specific page (Tab) on a report based on users privileges / Roles.

Thanks for all the feedback! Currently, Power BI does not have a security feature for pages; however, using conditional page navigation and RLS, you can create a custom navigation experience that shows different page options for different roles.

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

This would save everyone a ton of time. One dashboard to access across an organization, default filters per users based on department/role visibility.

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

'Given that there is a significant focus on Enterprise features in Power BI, I am surprised that there is not automated solution for row level security (RLS). For datasets that don't use underlying database solution, it is a very manual activity to mange RLS.

It would be good to have a solution to automate the activities for Row Level security

- Adding users (including bulk upload)
- Removing users (including bulk upload
- Extracting the list of existing users along with the role

I think the options could be:

- Rest API
- Sql Server Management Studio
- CSV download for each dataset

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

Plz make this feature possible, this way we can create 1 report with all the pages but based on certain data/security role/.. we can grant/revoke access to certain pages
This will help greately for maintenance/update of a Power BI report

This feature is really needed base on Security Roles.

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

Would be also from help here! We have a couple of repor "twins" where in the one version another granularity is shown than in the other, simply due to different priveleges of the users, but a missing function to hide / unhide tabs "on the fly" based on RLS.
