Switching between reports possibilities

Hello,

I am hoping you can assist me with the below request,

We are familiar with switching between reports in Power BI Report Server: enter to folder->choose a report.

We are having a request that wishes to have only one link for one report and inside that report (on the side, white area), he is asking for the possibility to switch to the other reports as in the structure below:


Is this even possible? His main purpose here is to have quicker access to reports.

I look forward to your reply,

    imenmaiza So typically you would use a Dashboard for something like that, but yes you could use a data category of Web URL to house a table of report URL's and display them in a table.

      Hello Greg_Deckler,

      Thanks for your fast reply,

      The work that you are suggesting can be done in the white space when deploying the dashboard ? Or it is part of the dashboard?

    Hi imenmaiza ,

     

    Form a link to the url you need to link to by publishing to web without authentication login (but there are security issues). Then create a table and enable this in Format->conditional formating-web url and apply it to the url field. Finally, you can successfully click on different report to jump to the corresponding report page.

    I did the test and reference as follows:

    Click on the report category in the report server to jump to the corresponding report successfully


    Best Regards,
    Henry

      Hello,

      Thank you for your help!

      However, the goal here is to do all this work in the work in the white space after deploying the dashboard to the report server (not a part of the report) as clarified below:

      I am not sure if this is possible.

      I look forward to your reply,
