Report Trees or Sub Reports
Hey everyone,
My boss is looking to implement what he describes as report trees or heirarchies. I have never implemented this nor did I know it was a possibility in PBI. What I understand is he would want say in PBI service, in the left pane of the dashboard where your page selection is that one page can collapse into sub pages, so a sort of parent child report structure. Is this possible and how? This crude snippet with drawing might illustrate the point a bit better.
Hello equevedo84
Power BI does not support collapsible parent–child report pages in the left page navigation (like a report tree or folder structure).
Native page level hierarchy = No
UI-driven workaround = Yes (buttons + bookmarks)Try with bookmarks.

Power BI does not support collapsible / hierarchical report pages. What your boss is describing does not exist in the native page navigation pane.
That left Pages list is:
Flat
Non-hierarchical
Non-customizable
You cannot create parent/child pages or collapsible page trees there.

As other users have already mentioned, this is not natively possible with left-side pane. However, since Power BI also provides Buttons, Bookmarks etc. there are always workarounds and you can find different tutorials videos online, for example this one,

Hi equevedo84 , as previous users have mentioned it is not possible natively to configure hierarchically the left navigation pane. The closest you can get to your requirement is by publishing an app to the workspace with multiple reports. Guide on publishing apps here.
