Favorite Report from within App

[Trebor]

There is no favorites option for a report when in an App. The star appears next to reports in the App workspace, and also in the recent tab, however users will often not have access to the App workspace so this is not sufficient.

Hi @Trebor,

It's not supported to favorite a report within a apps now. I see you already posted a idea: https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/33131722-cannot-favorite-a-report.... You can involve more users who want the same feature vote on this idea. More votes in the idea will be considered preferentially by PG team. By the way, I already vote on this idea. 

Best Regards,

For all of you who wants to make your report favorite in a app.

It is possible using a bug, glitch or hidden feature in power bi.

This are the steps.

1. Open report within app
2. Change one or more filters and/or select one of your visuals
3. Go out of app with 'Go back' left bottom corner.
4. Go to 'My workspace', here the report you just left will be shown (if not hit refresh browser) and make sure top menu is set to all or content.
5. Now hoover over report name and hit favorite (star)
6. Look in your favorite folder and surpise you have a favorite report

And now the fun part, when opening the report it will open outside of the app.

Good luck
