If my sub reports are hidden in the app, the users receive an error that the report is unreachable. Why is this experience different for PBIX reports with hidden tabs?
Please fix this bug.

Hi AnalyticLife
Sub reports ? Can you explain it with screenshot or video in detail ?

In Power BI Apps, in the Audiences I have 4 Paginated reports available.
One is the main report and the other 3 are sub-reports that are linked to from the main file, with parms being passed.
The 3 sub-reports I hide with the "eye" icon.
I publish the app.
When a user clicks on a link from the main report to try and view a sub report, they are presented with an error popup "Sorry, we couldn't find that report" and then are redirected to the App main page.
If the sub-reports are not hidden, it works fine.
We use the same technique with paginated reports, and have the same issue. This was a fairly common technique used with SSRS reports, and used to work the same way with paginated reports.
We need to be able to differentiate 'visible on navigation' from 'accessible to run'. We don't want the user to be able to run the sub-reports from the navigation menu - the reports are not meant for that, they are only meant to be accessed via the link generated within the main report (which includes appropriate parameter values).
