Link to Report Different for each User

Hello everyone,

 

I have a report shared through a content pack. The only included information in the content is this signle report and its single dataset. I would like to be able to tell users in our organization to bookmark the URL to this report.

 

However, I have tested this using two Power BI Pro accounts; one for me (creator of the report and content pack) and one also for me as a test account for other users (not the creator of the content). The URL to this same report is different for the two accounts.

 

What gives?

      granthworth It isn't suprising that the URL's are different. Each shared element lands in someone's personal workspace. (typically). A shared Content Pack needs to be connected to from one's personal workspace, so by default I would imagine every URL is different. Unless I'm not understanding something you are saying, I'd say this is expected behavior.

        Understood. So how can I link users to a specific report?

         

        I would like to be able to do this by setting up custom links through dashboard tiles and/or text boxes through the built-in functionalities.

         

        Thank you for your response!
