    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Ope your both reports in Power BI Desktop. You will end up with 2 Power BI Desktop files opened - previous dashboard & last dashboard.

    You can swicth between them while working on one of them.

     

    Thanks,

Sujit_Thakur I need to open a dashboard that was already published while working on different report that is yet to be published.

 

After publishing it will ask "open filename in power bi", but here I want to open that while working on another report.

HI Anonymous ,

 

Just open the existing report in a new browser and keep your working report in a different browser.

Youcan also use different windows, so easy to switch between them while working on one of your report.

 

Thanks,

Pragati

    So it means I should login to power bi in one browser seperately for dashboard and I need to work on reports in Power BI desktop app. Is that right?
