How to set default page in power bi service?

Hi. How can I set this one page as my default opening page in Power BI Service? I have done that in Power BI Desktop where I save and publish the report while opening my desired default page. 

But if I made changes in Power BI Service and save it, the default opening page will be the last page that I saved. Is there a way to only made my first page as the default opening page?

Hi , @Anonymous 

Currently, PowerBI Service does not provide additional settings for the default opening page.

As @amitchandak  said, the last saved page is the default page to be opened.

This is by design. IIf you do have such a need, you can add it to the PowerBI Idea forum. Once you get a certain number of votes, the development team will consider the idea

If the PowerBI report is published in SharePoint then remove the PowerBI webpart then add it again.

Spot on! ... re-publish the Sharepoint page and it worked..

 

Initially I created Page1 then created Page2 then I wanted to make Page2 the default and moved it to the left (tabs) but in SharePoint it was never the case....

 

Thank you

HI @amitchandak Can't I make the first tab as my default? Where it won't change if I made changes in other pages and save it? I don't want my last saved tab as default opening page. I want the first tab 

@Anonymous , As far As I remember, click on the first tab/page and save. Think how others will make the second page as default.

Im not sure what do you mean by "Think how others will make the second page as default. " . Since the creation of online app there is the concept of default\home page. Why this is not part of power biI have no clue or at least being an option. I had to publish and re publish so many times because of how this works currently.
