Ability to customize default list view in Power BI Service (Workspace)

[molegris]

Hi,

I reached out PBI support engineer (TrackingID#2401300040008357) and they confirmed it's not possible at the moment, they recommanded me to open an idea here.

It would be very useful if we can change the default layout of the list view in the workpace.

Here's a usecase :

On the workspace home page, you see a list of objects in a list view. There's a column named "Refreshed" that shows last refreshed datetime and STATUS icon. As it is (in French), the default display format hides the status. It has a real impact on our business because we didn't notice that some dateflow failed to refresh, because there is no visual cues (we dont see the yellow triangle icon). (see attached screenshots) We know it's possible to manually resize the columns but because this manuals steps have to be done everytime we load the page, users stopped doing it. We were able to work around that issue by forcing the Microsoft Edge display language to English.  But it's not ideal since many of our users don't speak english and this changes the browser language for all usage.  N.B. Our monitors displays are set at 1920x1080.

One of the following 2 features would be very helpful :

1. Ability to remove unused columns AND change the default size of the columns.

2. Change the default date format independantly of the browser selected language.

Thank you

I agree.  I'm new to PowerBI cloud/Fabric (we are trying to move from on-premise).

I have a workspace that contains a lot of Paginated Reports and it would be useful to be able to have a column showing when they were last published (I'm sure that info must be available somewhere).  Instead, I have lots of empty columns - like 'Task', 'Endorsement' and 'Sensitivity'!  It would also be useful to have the reference for the report readily available in a column (at the moment, you can only get it from the URL) so you can reference the report more easily in e.g. PowerApps.  

Therefore, being able to customise the columns in a PowerBI Workspace would be great.
