Email notification when report refresh

Hi,

 

Does anyone know the way to set up an email notofication when REPORT is refreshed ? It seems that subscriptions work only once a day, but I need to send email notification to Business Owner every time when data set has been refreshed.

Any hints?

 

Regards,

Karo

Hi,

 

I would also like to know if there is a way to send email via outlook (to stakeholders) on Power BI refresh. Couldnt find any solution yet in Power BI or Power automate templates. Please help

 

Thanks

Hi @karo ,

 

As far as I know, it's only supported to send refresh failure notification currently.

 

Best Regards,

Jay

@karo - Please have a look at below posts, although they dont seem much promising -

You can also post an idea for the same.

 

Appreciate your kudos!! Mark this post as solution if this helps.

Thanks @Anonymous , I saw both post before I post a question, however they are not covering several refreshes during the day 😞 I have also checked Power Automate, however, so far no solution from my end.

 

Anyone?

@karo - Yeah, as far as I think, there is not any solution atm.

Alternatively you can set data alerts if you can consider this.

Yes @Anonymous , I have tried with allerts, even by creating Dashoard on top of the report, however currently alers are also limited (treshold only above/below what is not the best in case of checking data set  refresh changes and also working in 1 hours intervals (I think) what is not so helpful) 😞

 

let's hope for a solution in near future
