Needs VotesPower BI Apps: hide/unhide pages within artifacts for audience groups
Erwin Snoeks on 07 Sep 2022 13:25:04
We see a lot of new opportunities to work with the new audience groups and “Manage Audience Access” pane for Power BI Apps to specify which groups or users can access which artifacts.
But we have audience groups that can use all pages of a report and some of them are hidden.
At the moment, we create separate reports and use permissions but then we saw how easy it is to hide/unhide artifacts for audience groups in Power BI Apps.
We already see the visable pages within each artifact in the "Audience" pane but the hide/unhide icon is only on artifact level.
The idea is: Why not expand this hide/unhide feature to page level?
Maybe also show all the hidden pages and the hide/unhide icon defines its visibility?
This way we would only need to maintain 1 report (and manage the audience groups) but it would also be easier to work with very similar reports.

RE: Power BI Apps: hide/unhide pages within artifacts for audience groups
To hide individual tabs within a report would be 100% what we would need to decrease the number of single reports we need to maintain. We would need the audience functionality to build the different Operational reviews we have. In addition it would be good to have the possibility to have more than 10 different audiences. >30.

We got some big reports and had to split them, to work around not having this feature.

This would be a huge help in our processes.

This would really help the report developer as they wouldn't need to create totally separate reports just to hide pages from certain audiences. It would allow you to display the data in different layouts depending on the audience and only show the audience the relevant view that they need.

From our side, it would help us by removing the need to have multiple reports based on the same data only for some pages to be shown to our field force users, while some other pages (currently another report) are shown to their managers. Being able to display some pages to the field force and more pages to their managers would ease the maintenance work on reports.

We very much love the new Audience feature. However - we miss a toggle button to view/hide the link ribbon: "All". "Audience group 1", "Audience Group 2" etc.We only need to control who has access to various reports in the app.That is: if you are a member of "All" groups - you dont need to see the "Group nn", that only is allowed to see one report.

This was our immediate thought as well, it would mitigate the need for Page level security in our environment

This is a great idea
