Seems like I can't pin a chart from another persons shared dashboard to my new personal dashboard. IT would be nice to be able to use their report on my own personal version of the dashboard.

Great idea. We have the concept of 'favorites' in the mobile iOS app, which we could bring into the dashboards with a personal dashboard too.

RE: Allow pinning of a shared dashboard's reports to a new personal dashboard

This is a very important feature, users would be abble to select cards that are most significant. The workaround "copying the report for each user" sucks, because eventually the copy become old and they have to recreate all their dashboards.

This would definitely help us get support for Power BI within our organisation. Most things we deploy are read-only - if users could create dashboards in their own workspace from this content with things that are relevant to them, they would absolutely love it.

Absolutely essential at this point. Trying to fond workarounds to this problem now.

RE: Allow pinning of a shared dashboard's reports to a new personal dashboard

I completely agree that this should be a standard feature available at this point. Telling users they have to get a content pack just to pin one tile is completely inefficient.

RE: Allow pinning of a shared dashboard's reports to a new personal dashboard

I am quoting @stewardR here:
Similar: In groups where members are read-only, it would be fantastic to let them make their own dashboards in their "My Workspace" section by pinning tiles from the group reports. This is the exact grain of control that my organisation needs - Analytics team deploys reports and some main dashboards, and users can then pull the content that they want from the various pages.

RE: Allow pinning of a shared dashboard's reports to a new personal dashboard

This has been under review for a very long time and is a feature that is sorely needed.

RE: Allow pinning of a shared dashboard's reports to a new personal dashboard

It is important. Everyone needs different information the support their daily decisions.
It is hard for the report users to navigate between workspaces.
