jeppesal,

 

Based on my research, after you content pack refresh, ther report will generate a new GUID. And currently, there is no such a option for us to keep the GUID static.

 

In your scenario, can you share the dashboard to your users directly?

Hi Charlie,

 

Thank you for your answer.

 

My problem is that it is reports (with multiple pages) I would to share and I can’t do that (for some reason?) :smileysad:

 

This is such a great product but the whole collaboration part is confusing, immature and has huge gaps in the most basic scenarios.

 

Most scenarios have; developers (external or internal) to maintain the model and create more advanced reports, super user to create basic reports and keep track of who can see what etc. and normal user with simple reporting needs.

 

I hope you are working on fixing the sharing and collaboration part and change it to something simple, intuitive and effective.

 

Best regards

Jeppe S.
