Can I combine 2 pbix file into 1 report?

[Anonymous]

Hi. I have 2 reports with me. Report A has 50 pages, Report B has around 70 pages. Is there a way to combine those two reports into 1? 
I saw this link https://www.inkeysolutions.com/blogs/power-bi-copy-visuals-to-another-pbix-file/ but it seems like I need to copy each pages into another report. Can I just merge the 2 reports to combine them?

Hi @Anonymous ，

There is no quick way to combine PBIX files. The update to copy/paste objects between files was released in November 2018: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-november-2018-feature-summary/#copyPaste

 If the pbix files have been ppublished to Power BI Service you can put them in the same workspace and they can share datasets and visuals. There is no similar solution in desktop.

Wish  it is helpful for you!

Best Regard

@Anonymous  - Another workaround is to copy the report B's published link and then create one button say "Report B" and past the copied link on that button so it will give you entire report B on that button click.

@Tahreem24 Hi. Do you know a way if I'm using a hyperlink that it will open on the same page? Or the same window? because it seems quite inconvenient if it opens in a new window.

Please refer-https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-november-2018-feature-summary/

which also suggests there is no direct way to do it but copying & pasting the visuals is the only workaround

or

You can publish both the reports in one workspace and then pin the required visuals in the dashboard if that solves your purpose
