Common dynamic text to every report
Hi sanimesa,
There is no way to dynamically add text per report page.
What do you mean "add a line of text with meta information on each tab of each report"? If you want to show the meta information at the bottom tab on each report, you have to rename the report page one by one manually.
If you would display text message on report view with a visual, you could add the field [Report Name] to page level filter, and choose the specific name for each page.

v-yulgu-msft Sorry, perhaps my comments were confusing. I do not want to change the names of the tabs. I want a text placed into each report as shown in the image. The text will be different for each report (for the entire report, the same value displays on each page of the report).

Hi sanimesa,
That case, you can refer to the second scenario mentioned in my original post.
As the text values typed into Text box is always static, cannot be set to dynamical. You can use a Multi-Row card visual to display messages. Add the field [Report Name] to page level filter, and choose the specific name for each page.

v-yulgu-msft I am surprised that on a script I can not detect the name or some sort of indentification of the report where the script is running. Every programming environment I have worked on provides a feature where a script knows where it is running. It would be really helpful if Power BI added some meta information to reports accessible to DAX etc.
