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.

Getting a lot of questions about my organization about this feature! I think it's essential to be able to control as much as you can with roles - and it would allow you to consolidate Dashboards that share datasets.

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

For any mature organization there is no alternative to (row-level) security being applied to the database-level, regardless of on-premise or cloud. As PowerBI provides no reasonable way to leverage a db-level implementation of RLS, one has to re-implement RLS into every single report or dataset, an approach that can only be suggested by someone who has never had to actually administer security in a self-service environment. Technically all this 'feature' would require is the user being forwarded to the source at connection time, as it can be done with Excel for years now. SSAS is fine for those who want to use it or need it, but not everyone wants to be forced to use it.

How crazy is it that no one has responded to this request?! It's been over 2 years!

Quite poor this basic feature has not been added yet...
