There is a power bi report with a visible tab and a hidden tab. Working on the hidden tab, I published the report and the hidden tab was shown to the viewer members as a landing page when the report was viewed. The idea of a hidden tab is not to show the tab. The report should not show the hidden tab to viewers.

RE: Hidden tabs should not show to viewers in the workspace once the report is published

It's pretty normal to have hidden tabs shown to users, for example via bookmark navigation, or as drill pages.One problem here is that Power BI will always set the selected page as default when publishing. It should be possible to select a page as the default, and always have that as the user default, no matter what page was selected. There are plenty of requests for this.There are also requests for page level security, which would cover the case where a hidden page must never be shown to users, even if they have the URL.
