    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.

    I am struggling to implement the report level security in most of my dashboard. Really need this feature available ASAP.

    it is very good function to enable data security and sharing among different function.

    this is very needed for enterprise, duplicating reports and storing in different folders is not a good practise; multiple versions to maintain and potential for them to drift in there code line.

    With over 1,170 votes at this time (03/2019), what does it take to get Microsoft to notice this much needed addition?

    This would be very helpful to serve e.g. different communities with the same report (e.g. mgmt / Controlling sees all; Sales only part A and Production only part B)

    Essential. Avoids duplicate reports

    RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

    I agree this is crucial. Unlike other users I did not want to create duplicate reports (because of maintenance issues) and as a result I used the one report for everyone. Using a combination of RLS and buttons. I was able to hide the tabs are replace them with navigation buttons. However, we still had users that can click on a button navigate to a report and see blank charts because of RLS.

    This is obviously not very professional.
