One Report in Multiple App Workspaces
Do Sales and HR draw from the same data sources? Do Sales and HR see the same reports? How do you give them access? Are they shared dashboards?
One thought i had was either looking into Row Level Security, if they see different data rows.
If they get the same data, just different reports then you could create different dashboards and share dashboards with them.
Thanks for the quick response! Yes, I recognize I could use my existing app workspace which houses all my reports and simply use the "Share Dashboard" functionality, creating a dashboard for Sales, and one for HR.
I was more interested in how I could advance to using the new Apps functionality, but having the ability to use one report for two different Apps (because one app may have additional content that the other is not privy to).
From my playing with the Apps i'd noticed that an App contains the entire app workspace. That sadly doesn't help for what you want.
If both HR and Sales had the same reports, you could strip lines away but i'm guessing thats not what you want.
Alternatively, you could have separate PBIX files in seperate App Workspaces, but that means twice the refreshes and keeping to different PBIX files with different reports/dashboards.
I'd be interested in knowing what solution you decide to go with for this. The reason we started using content packs was to allow the updating of a report that exists within multiple dashboards in one go.
Is there a way I can find out when content packs will be phased out and if there are any plans to incorporate this functionality into apps?
All of our reports have evolved to a point where they feature in multiple dashboards for different audiences - having one source file within the web app has reduced the admin required to maintain these.
