I copy here the same text than in the most voted idea:
Our PowerBI (PBI) team is reaching the limit of information handling of single PBI files in a common laptop (~5GB in different interconnected tables) for different tabs.
We have an iframe in our platform that avoids exposing the URL. If we include a link to another PBI it now opens it in a new tab, exposing the new URL.
Potential improvement could be use a separated file for each use. However, this is now not possible as will be a security issue.
Allowing hyperlinks in text boxes to open in the same tab will allow our PBI creator team to generate more efficient dashboards.
Hope we have this soon...or we will be forced to find a different solution.
