Accessing one dashboard in the workspace

Hello

 

Is it possible to specify users to access specific dashboards in Power BI apps website and not the whole workspace?

 

Thanks!

@Anonymous Yes, you don't need to give permission on the workspace, just give permission to Power BI apps and let use consume apps instead of workspace.

Hi @Anonymous,

For these parts, I think they should more be related to azure dashboard managed. Please take a look at the following links if they help:

Share Azure dashboards by using Azure role-based access control 

If you mean use azure to do permission manage with power bi contents, I haven't found any related documents mention of these.

For this scenario, I think power bi used office 365(classic workspace) and Azure(new experience workspace) to manage the workspaces, but the detailed contents permissions management may still available on the power bi side.

Hi @Anonymous,

The 'dashboard' not mean the main portal that Azure used to list products, it means the 'dashboard' option:

Create and share dashboards in the Azure portal 

In fact, this also includes in the link that I shared:

Share Azure dashboards by using Azure role-based access control#assign-access-to-a-dashboard 

Steps:

1. Navigation to the Azure dashboard and find out your dashboard that you want to configure.
2. Select that dashboard and click the 'share' icon to open the 'Sharing + access control' panel and choose access control options.

Regards,

Thanks for your reply but that is exactly my problem. I cannot navigate from the Azure portal to the Azure dashboard! Can you advise how to navigate to it please? Which section is it under in the links I showed above? How do I exactly list all my dashboards?

 

Thanks!

HI @Anonymous,

I think it may be related to azure settings or permissions. Perhaps you can contact your azure tenant admin to confirm it this feature has enabled on your account.
