Hidden reports in app doesn't work

After yesterdays update to Power BI Service app publishing I've had to rebuild my entire navigation menu. That is OK, but all dashboards that are based on hidden reports now doesn't work.

 

Workaround is unhiding the underlying reports, but I don't want the reports in the navigation panel, it just get messy. Please fix so drilling down from dashboards to a hidden report work again.

Hi @Gauteweb 

I created a dashboard based on my report , then hide my report in app ,but I can see the dashboard in app normally . Maybe you can clear your broswer cache and update again .

Sorry about the late reply.

I tried it again and it works on most dashboards now.

 

The problem isn't that the dashboard disapears, but that the tiles don't load unless the report is visible:

But most work fine now, some, like this one, is still bugging.

I face the same issue. I have many reports which I don't want to show on the navigation pane but would like to be accessible via a link. So, now I have too unhide them and show many reports on the navigation pane which is a nightmare for regular app users.

I'm experiencing the same issue and think I found a workaround.

 

If I unhide my reports, deploy the app and afterwards hide and deploy it again it will work. Seems that some required permissions won't be set if a report is hidden during the first deployment.

As another user commented, unpublishing the app, deleting and recreating it solved the issue for me. I now have the new menu when creating the app, but old navigation menu when inside the app.

Hope this helps someone.

Is there any plan to fix this? Deploying and re-deploying is not feasible and does not seem to consistently fix the issue anyways.
