You cannot create a tooltip for a card. However, a simple workaround would be to create a blank button and create a tooltip for that. Afterward, place the blank button on top of the card. So it looks like your card has a tooltip.

 

Detailed Explanation:

Create an empty button and add tooltip: Home -> Button -> Blank. In visualization tab, Outline -> Off, Action -> On. In Action, enter the tooltip description in tooltip textbox. Now place this empty button on top of the card to show tooltip for a card

    Hi,

    This is a great work around. I am just concerned about the uniformity of the toltip. How do you make the tooltip look similar? I am using PBI report server. The background color of tooltip is black with white fonts. Whereas when I use this method to create a tooltip, it appears as black font with white background.

     

    Thanks

        The report page tooltip does not seem to work on multi row card. Please correct me if I am wrong.

    Anonymous, this great but you have to apply an action. So if someone clicks on the button, which someone will probably do, it will do something. The default is back.
