This is one of the first few series on Power BI In A Jiffy. The series is meant to provide a quick update on Power BI related news. Being on the cloud, sometimes changes happen over night and new features are added. The Power BI developer team has the ability to release updates in a shorter cycle than most on-premise / box applications.

Please note that Featured Reports are effective site-wide, meaning that other users / team members would see those reports as featured too. You can feature and unfeature reports that are created by other users. In my example above, I have just featured / unfeatured report created / uploaded by another team member at LobsterPot Solutions.

 

Wrap Up

Featured Reports help the team to access frequently used / popular reports quickly. Reports / Excel files are promoted to Featured Reports by a member of the team, for the team.
