By Impran M N
Consolidating metrics from two separate reports into one executive view doesn't require rebuilding your data model from scratch. This guide shows how to use Power BI Service's Pin to dashboard feature to pull visuals from multiple published reports onto a single unified dashboard. You'll learn how to arrange the combined tiles and set up navigation links back to each source report.
01Publish both reports
Make sure both separate Power BI Desktop report files are published to the same online workspace.
02Create a new dashboard
In Power BI Service, click New in the workspace toolbar, select Dashboard, and give it a descriptive name like Executive Master Dashboard.
03Pin visuals from the first report
Open your first report, hover over a target visual, click the pushpin Pin visual icon, select your new dashboard, and click Pin.
04Pin visuals from the second report
Open the second report and repeat the pinning process to send its visuals to the same target dashboard.
05Arrange and share
Open the combined dashboard, drag tiles into your preferred layout, verify source links work, then click Share to distribute it to your team.
Frequently asked questions
Do the two reports need to share the same data model?
No, you can pin visuals from entirely different reports and data models onto the same dashboard since it aggregates visual tiles rather than merging models.
Can I click a combined dashboard tile to jump back to its source report?
Yes, each pinned tile keeps a link back to its original report so users can click through for more detail.
Can I pin an entire report page instead of a single visual?
Yes, you can choose to pin a live connected report page or an individual static visual, depending on your dashboard needs.
Do both source reports need to be in the same workspace?
Yes, both reports need to be published into the same workspace before you can pin their visuals onto a shared dashboard.
