Close Internet Tab with Button or Navigate to homepage in same tab

[LiebmannA]

Hi All, 

In Short:
Can we make a button that :
1. Either the home button to jump back to the homepage in the same tab.
2. Instead of performing any navigation it should just close the existing tab (so that only homepage remains open). 

In Detail:
I am using some reports that are opened up from a PowerApp based homepage using some hyperlinks from a dataset where you can add/remove a selection of user specific favorited reports. 
(when users click on the report in the app embedded to PowerBI it opens the report on a new tab)

If possible I want to implement a home button on all other reports that contrary of its naming would just close the opened tab. 
As far as I know if I add a simple Action to a button in PowerBI that is linked to the Web URL of the homepage, it just opens it on another (new) window. This would get the users broswer window crouded after a few performed switches. 

But if we just close the newly opened report, as the homepage was opened prior on the other tab it would just jump back. 
(if I imagine it correctly)

I dont know if it is possible to set up a button action like that somehow in PowerBI. 

I have not found a way to do it so far. 
I was even thinking of doing something in powerautomate to activate when button is pressed. 
Please let me know if there is a more straightforward way to solve my problem. 

Thank you for your efforts and advices in advance.

Hi @LiebmannA ,

May I confirm if you need to open a new tab each time you use the Launch function in PowerApps to access a BI report, rather than replacing the existing tab?

If so, please try this formula in powerapps:

Launch("BiReportLink",{},LaunchTarget.New)

Best Regards,

Hi @v-bofeng-msft , 

On the opposite.  (Not launch, Replace)
I want every action to happen in 1 tab, or as few as possible. 
I have built a homepage app and want the relevant hyperlink to "Launchtarget.Replace" but the formula does not work . 

Launch(

    LookUp(

        'User Dataset',

        Mail_DS = User().Email && Bericht_DS = "Bridge",

        URL_DS

    ),

    {},

    LaunchTarget.Replace);

Hi @LiebmannA ,

If you use LaunchTarget.Replace, clicking the button will open a new tab. When the user clicks the button again, the content in that tab will be replaced. Please let me know if this aligns with your requirements.

Best Regards,

Hi , @v-bofeng-msft 

"Launchtarget.Replace"does not work in this instance unfortunately. 
Please read my formula above, where you can see that I am using that. 

Also I am stating that it does not work.
