Helper IEmail notification using Power BI Alert & MS FLow sending false positives.
I have created a flow which sends an email to specified people when a Power BI Alert is triggered. The flow works flawlessly except that every Sunday around 5 PM it will send out a false alert. Like clockwork. I'm theorizing that some sort of refresh is happening in the power bi service on Microsofts end that is causing the alert to fire. Another clue is if I turn the flow off, then turn it back on, an email will be sent as if the Power BI alert was fired (when it hasnt).
Any ideas how I might remedy this problem?

Hi hawb ,
Maybe you need to login in the Microsoft Flow, and change the recipients in the “To” field, see more detail: https://www.blue-granite.com/blog/from-alerts-to-actions-power-bi-alerts-and-microsoft-flow. As to further advice, I'd suggest you post in the dedicated Flow forum.
You can learn more about Alert:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-set-data-alerts.
Best Regards,
Amy
