Pinning to a Dashboard

Hi Lauren,

Thank you for the forum question.

Some visuals cannot be pinned to a dashboard and there can be a number of reason, why a visual cannot be pinned.

You can't pin tiles from reports that are shared with you.

Some special custom visual or slicer visual, it is not supported to pin to dashboard.

I haven't had this problem, but I have Googled problems pin to dashboard.

Some got error messages when they tried to pin.

For some users it resolved the problem by updating Power BI to the latest version.

Others did the steps below.

1. Remove report and related dataset from service.
2. Publish report one more time from desktop version.
3. Pin appropriate visual to dashboard.

P.S. Re-saving or republishing doesn't help, only remove and publish in my case.

I am sorry but I cannot really tell you what the problem is in your case and how to solve it, but I hope that this answer can help you anyway.



Kind regards
