Hi!
Working on increasing the usage of my organizations reports I was thinking in the ways of "what questions can our reports answer?". This answer may be simple to answer to the ones who created the reports or to domain experts, but if you are not familier with them it could be overwhelming if there are a lot of reports. My organization is mainly using live connection with SSAS which disables the usage of the Q&A on the dataset which would absolutely be useful.
But, I was thinking of some functionallity such as being able to adding your own text labels to visuals / pages / reports which would be part of a result set in a search bar in such as an app or workspace.
Does this kind of or similar functionality exist? If not I would think this would be usefull for others as well!
Best regards

We are using an Excel spreadsheet containing tags and a link to the report but it is tedious to maintain and would be strikingly more useful if Power BI had this capability.
I do use bookmarks as navigators and as filters a bunch, but my challenge is to help non regular users and new users find what ever subject that might be covered in one of many reports. Dashboards do help somewhat, but can become too specific and require more to create.
I feel like beeing able to search for text strings would be really helpfull. It could be its own section under the General options on visuals or pages, but this is just me doing some wishful thinking.

Take a look at Use bookmarks to share insights and give feedback via Ideas to help improve Power BI.
Has there been any functionality added for this in the last 3 years? Our organization has maybe 50-60 reports, and for new users it can be very difficult to know where they can go for the info they need. We try to organize it as much as possible. And I don't see how using bookmarks could help a user find which of 50 reports are relevant to them.
Agreed. How would this serve as a substitute for helping our users find reports?
