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 feature will help minimize maintenance instead of copying report and removing some sheet for security reason

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

This would be great for development work and for role specific views

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

Not having this makes access an administrative nightmare. An alternative solution would be allowing multiple apps created per workspace.

With the requirement to have one workspace per app and then not allowing ability to have group security added to dashboards / reports/ tabs then you effectively require us to build a workspace per user group so that each user group can have access to the proper content.

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

Two major gaps, 1: We cannot create multiple Apps in a single workspace, 2: We do not have PLS - leads to increbible amount of works especially when you have number of users and each users needs to be restricted based on contents. If we have PLS at least at first, it will reduce our efforts overwhelmingly! I'm sure the team is working something big! Thank you :)

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

Would be a great benefit for us. It is clunky and error prone to run parallel reports off the same dataset with one missing pages.

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

This will be a great feature to selectively hide/display pages based on roles which can cater to different audiences. I am forced to create different reports to cater to different user base and duplicating the dataset. Please include this in the next release. Thanks.

This function is a needed feature! This would reduce the need for multiple files to visual the same data for different roles

RE: Page (Tab) level Security.

This is a great suggestion. Like others, I am having to split the file into multiple files referring to the same dataset to control access via sharing. I am not a particularly experienced Power BI developer and when I started looking into the user access control I found it complicated and quickly gave up.
