PBI Desktop October 2021 release.
Microsoft Edge Version 95.0.1020.53 (also tried Chrome with same result but keeping it all in the MS space for simplicity here).
I created a test report in PBI Desktop with a manual data table (Enter Data) with a date - 16/11/2021
I created a text box with plain text in it.
I then created another text box with some text and the dynamix value 'last date in table'. This correctly pulls back the date value.
Lastly I upload it to the PBI service.
When I hover over or click on either text box I cannot see the 'pin' icon.
In the PBI Service if I then 'Edit' the report I see the pin icon.
I click on the plain text box, click the pin icon and get the pin to dashboard pop-up to select or create a new dashboard.
I click on the text box that contains the dynamic value, click the pin icon, and get nothing. The Pin to Dashboard pop-up does not come up.
I'd happily chare my PBIX but looks like this board doesn't allow that. Hopefully my explanation is simple enough for someone to easily reproduce and/or understand.
This has also been confirmed as reproducable by a PBI Community 'Solution Sage' via this thread: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Cannot-pin-text-box-tile-to-dashboard/m-p/2192249

Hi @SteveCarter1
I've got confirmation from product team. Currently, text boxes with dynamic values cannot be pinned.
