    Hi nidish,

     

    Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Forum Community.

     

    You cannot open other reports within the same tab from a Power BI button or link. The only workaround is consolidating all pages into a single report to avoid the need for cross-report navigation.


    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi nidish ,

    Currently, Power BI does not fully support opening different reports within the same tab when navigating between multiple reports published as part of an app. When you link buttons to external reports using Web URL or report page navigation, Power BI typically opens these links in a new browser tab or window for security and session management reasons.

     

    Unfortunately, there’s no native option at this time to force these cross-report navigations to open in the same tab.

    One potential workaround is to consolidate all related report pages (Sales Summary and Profit Summary) into a single Power BI report file; this allows you to navigate seamlessly between pages using standard page navigation buttons or bookmarks, all within the same report and tab.

     

    This approach simplifies navigation and provides a smoother user experience without needing to open new browser tabs. Hopefully, Microsoft may introduce more flexible cross-report navigation options in future Power BI updates, but for now, this consolidation is the most practical solution.
