Email Subscriptions Public Preview Feedback
Hey all -
First off, big thanks to everyone for the feedback.
As we progress through public preview of email subscriptions, we've been hard at work improving the feature based on your suggestions. Below, I'll summarize the work that's in the pipeline:
RE text being too small or hard to read
We have a fix coming soon which will make the image larger, and also sharpen the fonts.
RE consistently not receiving the e-mail
In this case, what's likely happening is that your account's User Principal Name (UPN) is not configured to receive email. Power BI currently only sends email subscriptions to your UPN. We are planning to fix this in the near future, so that emails get sent to accounts whose emails address are not the same as their UPN.
RE emails with some visuals not loaded
We've already made some fixes which greatly decrease how often this happens. Let us know if you're still encountering this problem!
RE subscriptions for dashboards, subscribing others
We're working hard on these features - more details to come.
As always, thanks all for your support, and let us know if you have any further questions or requests for this feature.

sirui_sunI've noticed the improvement to the loading problem. I am now getting consistently complete emails for all my test subscriptions. Once some of the other improvements you mentioned are in place and stable (readability/size, subscribing other users) I will be ready to roll this out for my users. Looking good so far!
RE emails with some visuals not loaded:
When I first look at the mail via iPhone everything is fine. When I then put the mail into another folder and have a look at it again it shows old data.
RegardsI have gone through this thread as we are facing issues with email subscriptions. Currently, I have subscribed to 3 reports and 1 dashboard. When we recieve email after the refresh in the morning, we receive the right report/ dashboard subscriptions email on the outlook but same subscription email when we recieve it through mail app on iphone - it is sending wrong embedded dashboards and reports -it's all mixed up( For example - I have subscribed to report A, B , C and one dashboard D. When I recieve an email for each report/dashboard in the outlook separately and correct format. Same email when I checked in mail app in iphone - screenshot of report A and report C is mixed up in same email but report A is marketing and report C is Sales - like that I received 4 emails like in outlook but all mixed up. Is the subscribe work for only one subscription on the mail app in iphone?Most of the marketing reps use iphone mail app as they are on the fly. What is the main reason for this issue? Is there any work around for this issue? Please advise to resolve this problem temp until permanently. This is causing so much grief at the moment.
PS - if needed can send you screenshots of both outlook and iphone mail app.
Thanks,
