Drill-through report
Anonymous Dashboards are your highest level, and can contain tiles from any number of reports.
Dashboards only exist in the Service.
You can pin any visual, from any number of reports, to the same dashboard.
The user will click a "Tile" on the Dashboard, and be taken to a report page.
When you upload a file from the Desktop to the Service, everything exists on the Service (Azure back end). Nothing relates to your on premise desktop file at that point. There are a bunch of different scenerio's for using different back end sources, but we'll keep it simple...
The support documentation is really good, use the navigation on the left hand side of my link to explore these topics further.
Hope that answers your questions/points you in the right direction.

at least is there any way in service that if we pin a visual to a dashboard from the first page of a report, when i click on the visual in the dashboard, can it take me to the second page of the same report...??:smileysad:
Anonymous You can get a visual to navigate to any page of your report.
Say you currently have visual A on report page 1, but you want it to navigate to report page 2. You can do this in 2 different ways.
1) Edit the tile on the dashboard and set a custom navigation path. click the '...' and the pencil icon, and set the URL to the report page 2. (there is a current bug in this and it won't open the page in another tab if you set it to do so)
2) You can take Visual A and recreate it on page 2 of the report. Pin it from page 2. Then delete it from page 2. This will have the desired effect, and the tile will continue to be updated with data.
Hey Anonymous
Thank You.
Hi Anonymous,
do we have any alternative to drill through in Power Bi Desktop App.
Clicking on a visual or any button which will take us to another page in the same report.
Lets say i have Visual(or Button) A on page1, when i click on it, it should take me to the page2.
Anything, any script or codes we can write for it ?
Thanks in advance
Anonymous Not to my knowledge, if there was I think there would a bit more noise about work-arounds as that is a popular request.
