The other day, one of my customer told me that one of the report page was not neccessary. So I deleted.

Now, he says he wants this page back, but I have to replicate it.

It Would be great if we had the possibility of hide a page, so we don't need to delete and recreate if needed.

Thanks!

Unfortunately, I forgot to update the idea but we did finish this feature back in January! https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-january-2018-feature-summary/#hidePages

Hello All,

It will be help if you implement hide and unhide the Page option at desktop version?

If you implement this in upcoming updated it will be great.

Thanks

RE: Adding a "Hide Page" option

Absolutely need this. Sometimes you see an old report page that looks weird, and you want to hide it until you get a chance to investigate

RE: Adding a "Hide Page" option

The ability to hide a page is even more important now with drill through and bookmarks. We need the ability to hide pages and then go to them via a drill through or bookmark.

Agree with Andreas, this is more important now that we have the option to drill through to another report.

RE: Adding a "Hide Page" option

As a dasboard creator/administrator i think it would be interesting to be able to develop some pages/sheets in the dashboard and not share it when published the whole time...
The alternative could be having permissions by page/sheet.

With the new drilltrhough option this would be really great to have. Often the information in the drilltrhouge page should only be available on drillthrough as it is then filtered to the relevant context.

RE: Adding a "Hide Page" option

I would like to hide a page to allow me to pin visuals to a dashboard that don't necessarily appear in the report. I can then have headline visuals in my dashboard that drill through to report pages with more information.

The OP needs to save his pbix in OneDrive or SharePoint to take advantage of file versioning. This would allow him to go back to a previous version.

This option is essential. As someone who is in the process of moving from Tableau to Power BI I was very surprised to see this isn't available.

QlikView has had this for 8 years! the ability to hide/show should be based on some sort of metric ... not just a yes/no
