Adding release notes when publishing/updating dashboard?

Hi All,

 

Is there a possibility within Power BI to add release/update notes and send them directly to end-users? It would be nice if they get a notification saying that their dashboard/report has been updated with the release notes included. In that way, it will be integrated within Power BI. At the moment I am using Word to send them a separate document.

  • Hi DeBIe ,

    may be you can use the comment function for this case:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/consumer/end-user-comment

     

    Otherwise you can build a little table in Power Query to add in every version a little history, you can put that on a information button on the report page and with a tool tip the user can see what you did :)? 

     

    Best,

    Kathrin

      Hi KBO,

       

      Thanks for thinking with me. 

       

      -I did not know of the comment functionality yet. I have tried it but I will use it only to receive feedback.

      -Your idea of creating a table is creative and I have tried it as well. I think I will go with that for now. 

       

      Thank you!
