Hi ldrivinghawk,

Currently, Power BI desktop doesn't provide built-in Sendgrid connector. You can download Sendgrid template files and .m file from here:

- Install the latest PBI Desktop
- Create a folder called Extensions under: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Power BI Desktop\bin
- Copy the .m file to that folder
- Set these 2 environment variables in Windows:
PQ_EnableExtensionDeveloper = true
PQ_ExtensionDirectory = C:\Program Files\Microsoft Power BI Desktop\bin\Extensions
- Open the PBIT file

Best Regards,
Qiuyun Yu

Thanks v-qiuyu-msft , This PBIT file gives email statistics.

Do we have any other PBIT or PBIX which will give us SMS reporting capabilities?

Thanks,

Hi can we get the sendgrid data without any aggregation by using mentioned template files.

Currently data is aggregated by day.
