Send specific report content in email

Hi!

 

I have a business requirement of sending emails to users for a specific table of my report. I can set up a subscription for this BUT - the page that contains this table is hidden in report. Now, in subscription I can only add pages that are set visible in report.

 

How can I deal with this?

 

  • Thanks for all the answers but I tried creating a separate dashboard just for this particular table and created subscription for it. This works as expected and resolves my query.

  • You can use Power Automate for subscriptions with referencing a specific page even it is hidden.

      Thanks for respoding, I am aware of this way but this needs to be done within Power BI ecosystem. Do you know any other way? any tricks?

  • Temporarily unhide → subscribe → rehide:

    Edit report → Make table page visible

    Set up subscription (select that page)

    Save & publish → Hide page again

    Subscriptions keep working

      I tried this but subscription doesnt work anymore once I hide the page again. 

  • Hi InsightsByV ,

    Can you try below options:

    1. Option 1 -create a live connection report which is pointing to same semantic model and creat subscription form it.

    2. Option 2-Keep your Page visible in original report but hide it using bookmarks/selection.

     

    Let me know if any of the approaches work for you.

     

    Please give kudos or mark it as solution once confirmed.

     

    Thanks and Regards,

    Praful
