Last updated 1 month ago

Reporting Hub home page is a basic content page where all users will land after signing in. This page is globally accessible by all users with access to your Reporting Hub tenant. Individual or security group permissions can not be applied to this page.

Editing the Home Page Following Deployment

Following installation of the Reporting Hub application, the home page is pre-configured to display documentation to aid in completing your deployment setup. Once you have completed the steps outlined, you can update your home page.

The home page can not be removed. It must be edited and updated with your custom content. Alternatively, Enterprise and Commercial-tier users can designate any navigation item as their home page.

The home page can be an embedded URL page or Power BI content like a report or a dashboard.

Set the Home Page to Power BI Content

  1. Access your Admin Settings menu by clicking on your profile picture.

  2. Select Manage Content.

  3. Select the top item in the menu structure to edit the home page. It is called Getting Started by default, but you can change the name.

  4. If you'd like your home page to be a Power BI report, a paginated report, or a dashboard, set What type of Navigation Option are you creating? to Report. Fill out the fields and select Save.

Using an Embedded Page Link for your Home Page

If you have an Enterprise or Commercial subscription, you can make the home page an embedded URL.

  1. Access your Admin Settings menu by clicking on your profile picture.

  2. Select Manage Content.

  3. Select the top item in the menu structure to edit the home page. It is called Getting Started by default, but you can change the name.

  4. Under What type of Navigation Option are you creating? select Page Link.

  5. Change the Name if you'd like.

  6. Select an Icon (optional).

  7. Enter a Description (optional).

  8. Enter a Page Link, including the protocol (http:// or https://).

  9. Enable the Show Title and Description check box if you want a header with the title and description (entered in step 5) to show above the embedded page.

  10. Choose a Sort Order: where you want your Page Link to appear in sequence on your Navigation Pane. If you're not sure what the number should be, you can reorder the menu items later.

  11. Click Save.

Set Any Navigation Item as Your Home Page

Instead of having to edit the home page navigation item, Enterprise or Commercial subscribers can set any existing navigation it (embedded URL page or Power BI content) as their home page. If you are creating a new navigation item to use as your home page, you must save it before the 'Set as Home Page' option will appear.

To set a navigation item as your home page:

  1. Access your Admin Settings menu by clicking on your profile picture.

  2. Select Manage Content.

  3. Select the dropdown arrow in the Save icon and select Set as "Home Page".

Row-Level Security on Your Home Page

If your home page report uses row-level security, you should add every possible group/viewer to the report. If a user logs in and does not belong to any of the report's groups, they will see an error page saying that the home report is not set up.

To grant access, type user email or group names into the Permission (Users/Groups from AD) box and select the ones you wish to add. (Learn more about ). The content page will only be visible to those with permission.

or select an existing navigation item.

Unlike other content pages, the home page does not have to have groups/users assigned to it unless it is a row-level security report. If you are using a report with row-level security for your home page, you must select at least one group and assign roles as usual. See for more information.
