    Thank you Adam, I watched this before delivering a session on one of my reports to think about how it must be for an end user. I did not know about the control click to keep the filter from the original visual

      I think he did the following:
      1.Set up those text boxes with comments,
      2. then probably set up a large rectangular box (with semi-transparent fill) that can act as button
      3. then set up 2 bookmarks one where everything is visible, and where the large rectangle box & text boxes are invisible
      4. Use the question icon as a button to enable the visible bookmark and use the large rectangle box as a button to enable the invisible bookmark

    Hi, I like very much your videos, l have a small question - how to help our business users to make reports without knowing SQL. We have reporting server and we need a so called semantic layer for migration from BO 4.0 to Power BI. Thanks !

    Adam, thanks this is useful reminder for authors too (of what all they can do to make it easier for end user).
    Is that "Click for state detail" a custom button with bookmarks, or is this a new feature in Power BI?
    How did you enable the click on the state (Texas) to change the button to show "Click for state detail" ... is this (& Decomposition) ... all a magic of using multiple bookmarks?

    Consider a scenario wherein we have 5 different reports residing in a single workspace.
    When I publish those reports as an App, all these 5 reports will be published. But, I really do not want to provide access to all those reports with the users added to the App access list. Certain users should only see the report which they might be interested or they really require. Is there any option available to disable or enable report access to individual user once published ?

    • @sherryparker7205
      @sherryparker7205 3 года назад +1

      As it stands currently there is a 1:1 ratio of Workspace to App and security would be granted to end users at the App level. This would mean that to split up your access list you would need to have a Workspace for each group of people consuming reports. If a single report would be of interest to two different groups then the report would be published to both workspaces so it could reside in each App.

    I've never used an app, I usually just publish the report and be done with it. Advantages to using an "app"?

    • @knoxindy
      @knoxindy 3 года назад

      Definitely, it gives the users a singular left hand nav that lets them quickly move between reports. For example, one of my Apps is a "Sales" theme with 7 different Sales reports covering different viewpoints. If I don't put them in an App, the user would need to backup to the workspace to view the next report.

      It's a very nice way to wrap up a lot of reports, dashboards and other "things" like helpful URL's or guidance, into one thing.
