RIght now, on powerbi.com, there is no ability to organize reports, dashboards, etc into folders. If you have a lot of content or users, this gets messy quickly.

Please add the ability to organize into folders (and secure those folders separately)

Definitely need this. As it is Workspaces get messy very quickly and too many are created because you can't segregate content at all. Sub folders in a Workspace would fix that.

Why did Power BI take a step back comparing to all competitors and... Reporting Services?! Without folder structures and security based on the hierarchy of logical containers Power BI is constantly challenged by security fellows from IT teams in the enterprises. Not to mention that with folders we could clean the mess we currently have in our Power BI workspaces... C'mon, Microsoft, it's time to deliver this feature to Power BI.

Hey everyone,

an update on this Feature would be great - as we are planning on creating lots of reports for the whole Organisation in Power BI we will need to have the ability to structure the reports.

Best regards
Judith

Yes, still waiting for this, and true (complete) export to excel. This is a deal breaker
