Getting error when add a distribution list to the email subscription
Hi,
I got this error when I tried to add a distribution list to the email subscription.
The report is located in a premium capacity workspace though.
Thanks for the help!

Hi ivy8252003
Is it possible to have a look at the underlying data set for your paginated report? Just to confirm that it is actually being hosted in premium capacity
Hi Gilbert,
Yes, the underlying dataset is in the same workspace (premium capacity) as the report.
Best,
Ivy

Hi Jianpeng,
Thanks for your reply. It could be that the user has never been logged into PBI service.
However, I don't think it should stop them from receiving the email subscription.
Thanks,
Ivy
