Pin Visual Not Working
For some reason, pin visual has just stopped working. It was working 10 minutes ago but inexplicably it just stopped on all my reports. The icon is there but I click on it and nothing happens, seems to be the same on all reports. I have shut everything down and gone back in - same result. Even rebotted the machine and same result - has anybody come across this before?
I have the same problem. Found out that when I remove the title of the visual, it works.... (so you have to add the title in the dashboard). So this is a workaround, hopefully Microsoft fixes this issue soon!

Thanks, works for me too! Just edit the report in service, toggle the Title of the visual and the pin was able to work again

I tried this and it worked. So bizzare.
Appreciate the tip.

So - an update. Have tried using Edge and exactly the same issue. After another reboot, the pin visual is working on tables and cards (but not all) but not on any chart visuals. It will also let me pin the page (but not a chart) so all this tells me it's not a permission issue or a dataset ownership issue - starting to feel like a Microsoft problem.....

I have the same problem... Pin works on one card, but does not work on others... Same formatting... Seems to be a glitch...

Yes, it looks like an issue witht formating. I tried to pin a visual where I changed colours to non standard and it didn't allow me. The same visual with standard colours and no problems with pinnig the visual to a dashboard.
Edit:
I added a visual with standard and published the report, able to pin. I chnaged some of the settings step by step and publishe the report each time, after each change I was still able to pin it. At the end I was able to pin a visial with all the conditional formatting etc. Strange.

Current workaround is publish without a title, pin to dashboard then republish with a title and pin to dashboard again. It works, for me at least, it is deceptively time consuming though.

Same issue. Have tried Edge and Chrome. Really very annoying. Definitely a Microsoft issue.

If it makes a difference, I'm using Chrome

Same issue here, and I am using Edge just to make sure that all software is Microsoft 😉 but still does not work. Must be some Javascript bro introducing a bug. OK I'll stop here as I have nothing good to say about neither Javascript nor bro-grammers.

I'm having the same issue - tried changing settings etc but still the same as other posters - must be a microsoft issue, its so frustrating

Yup, this is definitely a problem. We have a production dashboard that now has broken visuals due to a recent deployment and we can't update to the new visuals because the Pin to Dashboard doesnt work.
I'm putting in a bug report.

I have the same issue - Every month i refresh all Visuals on the Dashboard, with new Filters - But the last week or so I have not been able to.
I even deleted the Dataset and report from PowerBi and republished - This did not help me.
I am going to try the "Remove Title Fix" and will reply here if that solves it.- MortenDeleuranFrequent Visitor
Removing the Title solved it for me.
