Let's review the new capabilities of Power BI Viewer, focusing on how they can help you improve productivity in Power BI.

The new capabilities of Power BI Viewer 1.1:

• Export reports in PDF and PPTX. This is one of the most awaited possibilities by Power BI Viewer users, who now have more options to share their reports with other users, exporting them in PDF or PPTX. The main advantage of this new feature is that when a user exports a report in these formats, the filters selected by the user will remain.
• New options for viewing reports. The new reports in Power BI Viewer 1.1 allow users to reset filters and refresh data in visual objects. This new capability prevents users from having to refresh the page if they want to reset filters they have applied to a report.
• New security layer - Access permissions per user. One of the great advantages of Power BI Viewer is that it allows the platform's administrators to assign different roles, access levels and degrees of autonomy to users. Now, this capability is optimized, allowing administrators to assign access permissions by user besides the already existing acess permissions by group of users. This functionality takes customization, governance and security capabilities in Power BI to a superior level.
• New possibilities for role assignment to reports. Before this new version of Power BI Viewer, administrators who wanted to modify the roles assigned to a report had to reload the report. Power BI Viewer 1.1 introduces a new button that allows administrators to change the roles linked to a report at any time without having to exit the current screen they are in.
• Enhanced visualization and user experience. Power BI Viewer 1.1 also includes multiple design and UX optimizations that improve the platform's interface. Navigating the environment is now easier, more intuitive and more enjoyable.
