Power BI – Pin Report to a Dashboards

Dashboards are used to display specific data, part of a report, a filter, etc. Reports and Dashboards are two different things, and most of the time people mix them. A power BI report in general is built into the power bi desktop, while dashboards are a part of the power bi service, and they don’t have the option to interact and cross-filter with the data. In this article, we will learn how to pin/create a report to a dashboard.
