Dashboard notification automation
epang you can use Power Automate to complete whole process:
1) schedule Power BI dataset refresh
2) send email after refresh has been completed
Link: https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/6885/notify-users-of-power-bi-dataset-changes/
If you don't want to use Power Automate, you can add visual on dummy report with latest date time information.
Every time dataset is refreshed, this value will be different.
But make sure to format it as a number and put into card visual (otherwise will not work, as dashboard alert request this data type).
Then when on Power BI Service, pin this visual to a dashboard. Then on this tile on dashboard create alert and set to send alert when condition > 0.
Everytime dataset has been refreshed, you will get notified via email.
Set forwarding rule to specific user group.

Hi, epang
Have you solved your problem? If so, can you share your solution here and mark the correct answer as a standard answer to help other members find it faster. Thank you very much for your kind cooperation!
As nandic says, you can do this with Power Automate. In Power Automate triggers a refresh of the Power BI semantic model. When the refresh is complete, send an email. Or you can set a trigger in Power Automate to send an email when the Power BI semantic model changes. You can refer to the following official documentation:
