Sending data driven alerts from a power BI report

[tamiribas]

Hello,

I have a simple report with a single table in it.

Account Name	Account Manager	Account Manager Email	%Utilization
Account1	Tamir	tamir@company.com	80%
Account2	Nadav	nadav@company.com	91%
Account3	Nadav	nadav@company.com	85%

As soon as the [%Utilization] measure exceeds the value of 90%, I would like the Account Manager to get an email alert with atable that shows only the rows that contain his/her associated records.

I need the alert to be triggered by the [%Utilization] measure and not by a planned schedule.

Thank you,

Tamir

I can set a threshold...but cannot send it to the associated Account Manager. 

The "send to" field, can accept only hard-coded emails, not a parameter.

Any advise?

Thank you,

Tamir

Hi @tamiribas 
Power BI has the functionality of alerts with specific visuals like cards/gauges.
If it can help to achieve your goal, please refer to the linked documentation:

I am looking for a solution that supports a table visual and is supporting the scenario I've mentioned.

Your reference, I believe to be for another scenario.

Thanks,

Tamir

The other option is a Data activator, which is in preview .

To use it you should have a fabric capacity and use this from the fabric workspace.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/data-activator/data-activator-tutorial

These are all the options for alerts that we have in Power BI.

From what I've seen, Data Activator can be triggered by schedule only and not by a threshold of a measure as in a dashboard alert
