Dynamic page hide

[Galat198]

Hi,
I have a report that I export in PDF
By filtering in the filter I have a different amount of pages
That means there is a report with 7 full pages and there are reports with 2 pages
So when I export a 2-page report to PDF then the other 5 pages remain blank, but see them in PDF as a blank page

Is there a way to dynamically hide blank pages? Or hide pages dynamically even before exporting to PDF when there is no data on a particular page?

Hi @Galat198,

Maybe you can use the following method to hide blank pages, but it doesn't work dynamically:

What is your requirement for 'dynamically'? Please details.

Step1: Set Bookmark pane

Step2: View the bookmarks

Step3: Export to PDF

Here is the output:

When there is no data on the page (e.g. sales amount = 0 and then a chart will be blank) then one should hide a page and not attach it in PDF printing.

Hi @Galat198,

It's not supported now, you can summint an idea: https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/

You can use the above method when you have a small number of pages.

Hi @Galat198 ,

can you provide more info?

Are you using Power BI Premium and exporting from the Power BI service?

Then you could possibly control the export via PowerAutomate.

No, unfortunately, I do not have a Power BI Premium
Just Power BI Pro account.
So, PowerAutomate can't help here...:(
