Bookmark feature

In the new bookmark feature in Power BI, is there a way to hide certain bookmarks from specific users in the same report possibly?  For example, if I have a Sales report, and want to have a bookmark for each salesperson.  Is there a way to bookmark it so one person won't be able to see the bookmark of another?

    Hi Rsanjuan,

     

    Currently, it is not supported to hide certain bookmarks for specific users. As this feature is still in preview, you could submit your ideas at this page, your feedback is valuable to improve the level of our products.

      v-yulgu-msft  Thank you for the reply.  Is it possible for the end user (user who is able to see the dashboard and report, but not the actual desktop file that is used to publish) to create their own bookmarks?

       

      I think this would be a good feature to be added if it is not yet possible.  This will allow the user to set their own bookmarks without having to tell the person who created the desktop file what filters to use.

        Hi Rsanjuan,

         

        Officila document writes that:

        You must have at least one bookmard in your report, when you publish it to the Power BI service, in order for bookmarks to be available in the service. 

         

        So, it is not possible for end users to add bookmarks depend on needs in any report published to service. If you have any concern about this feature, please submit your request at idea page.

         

        Best regards,
