    Hi there

    When you say tag reports not visible to end users, if you could give an example of what you mean?

      Hi GilbertQ 

      I meant something similar to the tag when you post a new message on this forum or same as Azure resource tags.  Thanks

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Currently, you can add text box to the report page to display something like title. For example:

    However there is no such an option or feature to add tag for different roles in Power BI currently. While your demand is a good idea, you can post your new idea in Idea Forum , add your comments there to improve Power BI and make this feature coming sooner.

     

    Best Regards,

    Hi Anonymous ,

    could it be that you ask for this beacause of versioning purpose? If yes here are a link which can help:

    If this is not the solution can you provide more requirements for your case? May be we will find a workaround :).

      Sorry guys, It is nothing to do with Text Box or Version Control. It is purely metadata on the Pbix file itself. As GilbertQ mentioned it is not an available feature yet. Hopefully in future they do include this.
