RIght now, on powerbi.com, there is no ability to organize reports, dashboards, etc into folders. If you have a lot of content or users, this gets messy quickly.

Please add the ability to organize into folders (and secure those folders separately)

Thank you all for the feedback since our last update. We're working on building a new navigation experience to allow authors to customize a folder-like structure for all the contents within Power BI Apps. Stay tuned!

Really missing this. We're getting a lot of new clients (yay) and it's making powerBI less organised (boo)

This is a must have! If we have tens of dashboards how will we be able to organise things? It would be a really lousy UX

Simple feature, but very needed. For testing scenarios it is ok. But if you have more than 10 dashboards, it is getting totaly messy

I'd be fine with something lighter-weight than folders, e.g. let me mark some dashboards as FAVORITES that show in up a separate list, or auto-group them by author/sharer/etc.

I really want this feature. At the moment, every employee in our organisation's got a dashboard with personal information and statistics from dynamics. It's getting really messy...

We need this feature to be able to provide a standard reports menu for sanctioned reports/dashboards. any BI vendor offers this capability!

And if that folder also identifies its from a Content pack even better. The ability to have an image on the folder would be good. Love the addition of the image to content pack.
