    Add security to show/hide any specific page (Tab) on a report based on users privileges / Roles.

    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.

    Must have functionality for external partner reports to restrict who should see what

    Page level security is really necessary at least for published applications!!

    needed badly. without it, we have to create multiple datasets that all draw the same data, just to display on 2 different pages in the report.

    RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

    there was an idea like this previous on ideas. Unfortunately that has disappeared.
    The initial response to this entry suggests how to fix this with bookmarks and features from the May update. Unfortunately, these do not provide control over the navigation menu as available from the standard functionality in the Power BI service. Wonder where the old item has gone!
    Would be nice to have this functionality to reduce the number of reports.

    A feature like that would be a life saver. Nowadays you have to band-aid stuff to make it works. It does sucks.

    yes, would be really great to set visibility of pages and visual conditionally based on DAX logic!
