This idea has come about from the introduction of personal bookmarks in the PBI Service: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/announcing-personal-bookmarks-in-the-power-bi-service/

Many report creators use bookmarks as a dynamic way of showing/hiding visuals, or navigating between tabs. Exposing an end user to these bookmarks could be confusing for them and expose the underlying workings of the report.

Personal bookmarks are great, but an option in PBI Desktop to expose certain bookmarks in the PBI Service would satisfy both report creators and consumers.

RE: Control which bookmarks are viewable in the service

I have several hidden pages, and it is only accessible using the Bookmarks, for two reason, 1- It could be because it is only accessible using specific buttons within deferent pages, as part of the navigation experience.2- It is hidden because it is still under development and I only need people who have Edit permissions to view it and get a feedback to improve it.I would thank you for the new ability to Group the bookmarks, this was an awesome new feature. but we still need the ability to control, which bookmarks can be viewed or not. This is not only improve the user experience, but also avoid users to access pages that they shouldn't view.

I could really do with having this feature - got lots of stuff published in Teams Channels & don't want users clicking through the bookmarks

Please add this feature. End users must not use certain bookmarks since they are used to change info on a page.

This feature is limiting cross-departmental collaboration. Some information is sensitive and should not be able to be accessed.

This one is a clear example where Value>>Votes. If you”re a data scientist rather than an app designer, perhaps you don’t care. But it is vital for app design. Please just do it.
