I believe there are several updates needed to Power BI subscriptions:
- Gate subscription ability. Right now, this is all-on/all-off feature. I would like this feature to be gated for users/security groups like almost every other setting in MS Fabric (e.g. allow only certain users/groups to create subscriptions).
- Zero visibility.
- Need to see subscriptions on monitor tab
- Need to know impact on CUs from these subscriptions
- Need to know everyone reports were sent to (E.g. if we have one subscription is sent to 5 people, we would need 5 records)
- Need to know when upcoming subscriptions are going to be run
- Purview labels are not respected in subscriptions. If someone sets up a label for the data in a report, the subscription does not ensure that the user(s) on the subscription are allowed to actually see that data; and since we have not gating by security group (see first bullet), they cannot be controlled that way either
- No dynamic data for "standard" subscriptions. It would be great to have the ability to have dynamic data input into the email subject or body. Right now the only option is static text.
- No CC or BCC settings. It would be great to have CC and BCC options.
- All emails get sent from PowerBI service. It would be great if we could use another SMTP server (set at tenant and/or workspace level)
- All emails get sent with the same template. It would be great if we could use a custom template (set at tenant and/or workspace level)
- Fabric semanitc model w/ all Fabric users/groups. There should be a native Fabric semantic model that contains all of the objects (workspaces, reports, users, groups, etc...) that could be leveraged by all who select "Dynamic subscription".
I have put these in my priority order
