Dynamically Stop Email Subscriptions from sending

I think I already know the answer to this is "no", but its worth a shot. Is there anyway to let Power BI know of a data failure and then to stop the email subscriptions that are set for that day. 

 

For example, if I have a sql data load that fails upstream, is there anyway to notify my power bi report and to disable the subscription from sending out to users?

Hi there

What I have found is that if my dataset fails to refresh, and my subscriptions are set to only send after a data refresh, the subscriptions will not be sent out.

Possibly you could change the subscriptions to be based off when the data is refreshed vs an actual time?
