Quick facts about content view
Content list
Content view helps users see Power BI content available to them in one place.
Created content
It can include content the user has created, such as reports, dashboards or other Power BI items.
Shared content
It can also include content that designers, report creators or other users have shared with the user.
User access
What appears in content view depends on what the user has access to in Power BI.
How content view works
Content view is meant to make Power BI content easier to find. Instead of searching through different areas manually, users can see a list of relevant content that belongs to them or has been shared with them. Content view can help users find:
- Reports they created
- Dashboards they use
- Apps or content shared with them
- Items they have permission to open
This is useful when people work with several reports or receive content from different teams. It gives users a clearer starting point for finding the Power BI content they need.
Why content organization matters
Content view shows why organization matters in Power BI. As more reports, dashboards, apps and workspaces are added, users need a simple way to find what is relevant to them. Without clear access and structure, reporting can become harder to navigate, even when the reports themselves are useful.
This becomes even more important when content is shared with customers, partners or larger internal audiences. Skald BI helps organizations create a focused reporting experience around existing Power BI content, so each audience can access the reports meant for them through a secure branded portal instead of navigating a broader Power BI environment.
