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.

Here's an example of this custom navigation experience: 
 Navigate with a Go button

You can start by hiding all pages on your report except the landing page. Then you will create a column that contains the exact names of the pages in report.
Here's an example: 
Create a table

Using Power BI's row-level security feature, you can define the security roles and rules for this column, and then you can add the column to a single-select slicer.
The slicer will only show values in the column based on the security roles and rules that you've applied to this column.
Navigate slicer

Next, you can create a page navigation button and click the fx button to conditionally format the destination based on the column: 
Page navigation button
 
Now the button can navigate the user to the selected page:
Navigate with a Go button

Disappointing that we don't have this basic functionality yet. The "fix" is not a secure fix.

7 years had passed from the Idea. well...?

Please provide this feature in Power BI, it's a game changer.

This really is basic functionality for a BI product. 7 years??!!!

Microsoft, it's time to revisit adding basic functionality in this product, not just bells and whistles to tick boxes on Tenders (ML & AI, etc).

Do you ACTUALLY use this product in-house? Listen to your internal PBI developers and consultants.

Hi Microsoft, Please provide tab level security as workaround not good.

This is terrible. 4 years later still under review. I wish I had that kind time to review massively important requests from my customers!!

P

This is a perfect example of Microsoft way vs Apple way! Paying attention to relevant detail. Put your leg in business user’s shoes & you will surprise yourself how come you rolled out Power BI without this feature as one of the default features. Sorry for being harsh, you get annoyed only with someone you love! Yes, I love this tool! Please fix it!

P

Really? 7 years later, still in review... This is truly hopeless, perhaps a switch to Tableau is in order.

Would love this feature to become available and no longer have to work around the issue by having multiple versions of the same report. Would mean drill throughs could be left on but you wouldn't be able to drill to specific pages if you didn't have access. Amazed this feature doesn't exist already.
