Dashboard Version control
- 8 years ago
Hi Denish,
>>>How do we manage version control on Dashboard? as it is a pinned items from a report.
On my opinion, there is no needs of version control on Dashboard. Dashboard is a collection of items that we'd like to see. So if we want it, add it. The reports are always there whether we add it or not.
Maybe version control could be applied on roles. For instance, Dashboard for Mayor, Dashboard for Secretary.
>>>How do we apply Application Lifecycle Management (Dev --> Test --> Prod cycle) for Dashboard
As I mentioned in the first answer, Dashboard is a collection. We need to make sure the items are correct before we pin them to the Dashboard.
>>>How can we stop Pro user to create dashboard? Can we disable "Dashboard" feature
Dashboard is a basic part of Power BI. I can't find a way to disable it. I think this isn't necessary. If users have reports and all the items, who will care if they can build a Dashboard or not. They still can share them through APP workspace.
Notes:
1. I think the best way to control is restricting the access to the data source. If they can't access the databases or the files, they can't create a report, neither the Dashboard.
2. Build a team to create reports and Dashboards. Others only can view them. If users have special needs, submit a request.
3. You can open Audit setting in the Admin portal.
Best Regards!

Is there a feature to turn off "Dashboard sharing"?
