Power BI new look navigating content
Hello
Since the new look was enforced I find it difficult to navigate content in a workspace. In the old look there was a separate tab for dashboards and reports which was great. In some of the workspaces we have 50 dashboards and close to 500 reports. Since the new look it is very hard to scroll through all of these to find a particular dashboard.
Questions:
- can separate tab be added for dashboard and reports
- if not can the content tab be sorted with dashboards coming first
Thanks
Hi spira ,
You will be able to turn off the new look if the administrator disable the option "New look" in admin portal.

Hi spira ,
Just as a friendly reminder, you still do have the navigation down the left side, even with the new look.
After that, you can sort the columns by Name or Type or whichever heading you want, so, you can have it separate the Types.
Or, you could use the filter at the top of the screen:
At this time, I do not think there is a way to specifically edit the page to do as you ask but perhaps if you post an idea about the changes that you want, they will implement them at some point in the future. If you do create an idea, let us know about it and the link to it here so that we can go there and vote for that idea as well.
I would appreciate Kudos if my response was helpful. I would also appreciate it if you would Mark this As a Solution if it solved the problem. Thanks!
Thank you collinq
That was helpful as your tip (to sort by Type) is helpful with the navigation.
I will post an idea, which will hopefully be considered.
Currently there is a lot of empty horisonal space to the right of All/ Content/ Datasets + Dataflow. This white space could be used for additional tabs like Dashboards, Reports, Paginated Reports etc.
Hi spira ,
Please check whether there is a "New look" option at the top right of your service page. If so, just slide New look on to New look off so that you can return to the old look. You can find the details in this official documentation.

Otherwise, please check with your service administrator, whether the New look option is disabled in admin portal.

I miss the old look because of what you have highlighted i.e. separate tabs for different items.
Since few days ago I no longer have the option to slide between the old and new look. I will check with the admins, but I fear the old look was disabled by Microsoft.
