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.

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

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

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

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!

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

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

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

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.

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

I understand this can be accomplished by a work around. However, this needs to be a seamless feature not requiring a work around. Power BI is an outstanding product. It's just silly for this to be excluded.

This feature needs to be an option as soon as possible.

Just implement it into the audiences feature so we can hide the tab from the specific audience.

This is imperative to help with integrated solutions to the masses. One report could effectively give 100,000 access to a couple of pages if unsubscribed, or access to other pages depending on their level of subscription.

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

Come on, please. This will an easy thing for Microsoft but making a huge difference for us. Since we cannot hide specific pages for specific audiences, forced to maintain duplicate report. Workaround is not good as such out of box support.
