It would be nice to see what dashboards/reports/datasets a user has access to by selecting just that user, instead of having to click Share on a dashboard/report and then flipping over to the Access tab. Would also be nice to select a User and then share multiple dashboards/reports to that user.

RE: View User Report Access by User

We can give access to a user for the workspace but we can also give access to an user for the Power BI APP. How can we extract the users who can have access to an APP ( and also when they are not using the APP ). Every 3 months I want a list of power bi users who are registrated as a user for the Power BI APP and for the Power BI workspace and the role they have.

Ability to have an administration list of users and apps, for which the user has access to.
Often one user has access to multiple apps and it is necessary to pass on to other users.

RE: View User Report Access by User

We have defined user access roles set up in our database. TO get this to work with PowerBI.com we need to be able to pass the user account or email address as a parameter while using DirectQuery.

RE: View User Report Access by User

I would like to fetch the users/groups details automatically to which Power BI dashboards or reports are shared. This is needed for auditing purpose.

Since we are having many dashboards & reports, its tedious to check the users/groups having access to each report/dashboard. Even this feature can be enabled in Power BI or enhance the Powershell commands to get the access groups/user list

RE: View User Report Access by User

This is definitely a requirement for me as well. The ability to pull a matrix report that shows each user and which report and the level of access they have for a workspace.

RE: View User Report Access by User

This is exactly the idea I was looking for in the idea place. This will reduce administrative work significantly.

RE: View User Report Access by User

It would be great to be able to see all users and which workspaces and dashboards they have access to. It would be nice to be able to filter by any particular user/workspace/dashboard to see different view of the same data.
Thanks!
