Hi. I think you are looking for sections when upgrading the Power Bi Apps. You can organize the app with that:

After you create it, you can click on the report you want inside of that section and change on your right the option "Section = None" to your section.

Hope that helps,

I tried the above solution, but was not able to find the alternative "New section".
Probably due to changes in user interface since the answer was posted in 2020.


Here is a solution for adding a new Section to an App:

- Open an app, select Update app, navigate to Content page

- Click the down arrow

- Select "Add a new section" from the drop down menu

A new folder/section is added to the report:

You can
- Rename the section by double clicking

- Add reports to the content by dragging reports onto the section


In the below example the section has been

- Section enamed to "Historic reports"

- All previous reports added to Section "Historic Reports"

The use of sections may offer an addition layer for grouping reports.


If the above solution is useful, consider marking it as an answer.
