Bookmarks Pane hiding based on user login type

Hi Team,

 

In my report I have 3 bookmarks panels like Sales , Revenue & Inventory. Now my scenario is can we hide the Bookmarks based on user login type i.e. if Sales manager is login then only we need to Show the Sales & Inventory bookmarks , If Revenue manager is login then only we need to show the Revenue & Inventory bookmarks. I have flag to identify  whether he is sales manager or revenue manager . Is it possible with in a single report instead of creating separate reports.  

 

Thanks

Naru

Hi @Narukkp ,

You should know that:

  1. Bookmark mainly used for storing page status. With bookmarks in Power BI Desktop, you capture the currently configured view of a report page, including filtering and the state of visuals. Later, you can go back to that state by selecting the saved bookmark.
  2. Row Level Security mainly used for restricting data of different users. Row-level security (RLS) with Power BI can be used to restrict data access for given users. Filters restrict data access at the row level, and you can define filters within roles.

For this case, Im afraid bookmark cannot work with Row Level Security(RLS) currently. Perhaps you can submit the requirement to ideas and add your comments there to make this feature coming sooner: https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas

For further information about bookmark and RLS, you can refer the following Microsoft document that could help you:

Hi @Narukkp 

You cannot do that. The only user base feature in Power BI is RLS for data rows (Row Level Security).
