Dataflow (Gen 1) - Additional contacts box for refresh failure

Hi Warren_Owen 

It looks like Microsoft recently updated the dataflow (Gen 1) settings for refresh failure notifications. Previously, as you mentioned you could add multiple additional contacts to get notified on failures. Now, as shown in the current interface, you’re limited to just notifying the dataflow owner, with no box for adding more contacts.

This isn’t a glitch, it appears to be a planned change, possibly related to simplification or an upcoming platform shift. Many teams relied on the old feature to keep groups in the loop, so losing this makes broader team monitoring harder.

Possible Workarounds you can try:

• Use a shared mailbox or service account as the dataflow owner if you need group notification.
• Set up a Power Automate flow to send custom notifications based on refresh events for more flexibility.
