Email subscriptions for reports and dashboards
- 1 year ago
Hi puru85 ,
Power BI Pro only allows email subscriptions to users within the same organization, meaning recipients must have an email address within your Azure Active Directory tenant (e.g., the same domain like bhc.com). This is why you're unable to add your vendor with an external domain to the subscription list.A possible workaround is to invite the vendor as a guest user through Azure AD B2B, assign them a Power BI Pro license (or confirm they have one), and share the report with them—after which they may be able to receive email subscriptions depending on your organization's sharing policies. Alternatively, you can use Power Automate to create custom workflows that send email alerts to external users based on data changes, though this would require some additional setup outside of the built-in Power BI subscription feature.
