Hi, not quite. If for example the content from a tab is copied and pasted into a new tab, then the old tab deleted or repurposed. Then it breaks the dashboards. Obviously something that shouldn't be done, bit of an edge case, but out BI person did just that recently.
To recreate the problem you can follow these steps.
- Create a report with 2 tabs
- Pin one of those tabs as a dashboard
- Update the pbix by changing the content of your pinned tab or removing it.
- Update the report using UpdateReportContent
Now if you deleted the pinned tab the dashboard is broken or if you changed the content the dashboard shows the different content.
I think it just somehow needs to track the tab is pinned and warn if that tab is changed. I will see if I can recreate it on a basic example later. My current example has data I can't show.
