How to display page navigation on the left in MS Teams

 

Hello, 

 

I am currently trying to use Power BI integrated with Teams.

When I view the report in Teams, the page navigation are positioned at the bottom.

Is there a way to move the page navigation to the left?

I am attaching an example image.

Thanks in advance.

Currently, Microsoft Teams does not offer a built-in feature to move the Power BI page navigation from the bottom to the left. Power BI settings control the navigation position, and within Teams, it inherits the default layout from Power BI.

However, you can try the following workaround to improve navigation visibility:

Use Bookmarks and Buttons: Create bookmarks in Power BI for each page and use buttons to navigate between them. Place these buttons on the left side of your report to simulate left-side navigation.

Embed Power BI Report in SharePoint: If you have access to SharePoint, you can embed your Power BI report there and customize the page layout to have navigation on the left.

Hi @Lora0121 ,

The Tab position will be the same as that in your Power BI Service when you add the report to Teams. In case you want to change the placement of the tabs from Vertical to Horizontal and viceversa, there is an option in Report Setting that you can configure in Power BI Service

The Below links talk about this with good screenshots

Hi @Lora0121 ,
I have not seen any settings to change this layout. As an alternative approach, you could add a page navigator, under Buttons, on the left side of the report page. When you hide all but one page, the navigation at the bottom does not show and users can select the pages from that page navigation in the report. This will provide you with extra formatting options for the page selection as well.
