Hi Anonymous ,

Have your mailbox receiving the subscription worked properly? Could it receive other e-mails?

Please note this consideration: If you aren't receiving the subscription emails, ensure that your User Principal Name (UPN) can receive emails.

In addition, as Anonymous  mentioned, sometimes at peak demand you may see a longer delay due to the number of subscriptions that Power BI can send at once. Most customers shouldn’t see a delay of more than 15 minutes to process and send reports. It may take up to 30 minutes for certain times and tenants that have significant usage. If you experience a delay that long, first ensure that the address [email protected] is whitelisted by your e-mail provider. If it is, contact Power BI support for assistance.

Whitelist means your e-mail provider allows senders who can e-mail you. If the subsription e-mail [email protected] is not included in the whitelist, you cannot receive subcription e-mails from power bi. If so, I suggest you create a support ticket here for further assistance.

 

Best Regards,

Thanks v-yingjl 

Yes we receive other emails. This is our first ever subscription , there are no other subscriptions. Only 2 people emails including mine were added to the subscription. There is no question of peak time as we are just getting started with power bi. We have pro licenses .

[email protected] is added to send emails.

    Hi Anonymous ,

    Can you receive other e-mails like sharing reports, create a alert etc by [email protected]?

    If no, it could be a communication problem.
