    Yes. For Power BI Paginated Reports, there isn’t currently the same built-in email notification for refresh failures that you get with regular Power BI semantic models/reports.

    A common workaround is:

    Use Power Automate with a scheduled flow.

    Call the Power BI REST API to retrieve the paginated report/dataset refresh history.

    Check the latest refresh status.

    If the status is Failed, send an email/Teams notification.

    Optionally, store the last checked refresh ID/time to avoid duplicate alerts.

    Another option is to monitor the Power BI/Fabric activity logs and trigger an alert through Azure Monitor/Log Analytics, depending on your licensing and tenant setup.

    If you need a simple solution without custom API work, monitoring through the Power BI/Fabric admin/activity logs is generally easier than trying to configure a native paginated-report refresh alert.
