If I share Dashboard do I need to share underlying report too

Hi Gurus, 

If I share a dashboard with a usere does that means all the undelying reports are automatically shared or do I have to share the undelying repots as well.

Thanks

Hi. That means that if you have an hyperlink in a tile to go to a report. The users will be able to click on the tile and go to the report. This doesn't mean that they will see in "Shared with me" the reports. They only have the dashboard shared. This means that you decide if you want the tile to have the hyperlink to the reports. You can remove that and they will only have access to the dashboard and nothing else. Or you can build small text tiles redirecting to the report in order to have a better presentation if that is your requirement.

So basically is up to you.

Regards,
