Working with Apps within Apps

How do I add a report link (link to another app) within an app?  Once done, how do update that linked app, once I have added new pages to it?

    Hi ShrimpSurf 

     

    You can add a button to your report and add the other APP to the button, when user click on that button your new app will be open in another tab.

     

    I'm 99% sure when you update the app, the link will not change. https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Power-bi-APP-links-stopped-working/m-p/1966066

      Vahid,

       

      I have done it before.  See the attached photo.   It creates a grouped report (not a linked report where it opens another tab).  I just cannot figure out how to replicate it and then to update the app, once visual (not data) changes have been made.

        Hi ShrimpSurf 

         

        If I got your point correctly, In the workspace, turn off the Include in APP for "Spencer Little Incentive", and in the "Premier Yamaha" report add a button with a link to the "Spencer Little Incentive" report.

         

        publish the app again.
