How do you handle report subscriptions?

The current functionality of report subscriptions within Power BI Service is very limiting...you are unable to filter on the slicers on your report page and can only send .pdf/.pptx...which is understandable since it's the report page and not a specific visual.

 

How do you guys handle report subscriptions? Maybe filtered URLs? Power Automate? Are you only sending .pdf/.pptx/.png or are you able to send .csv/.xlsx files as well?

Scenarios of report subscriptions would be like sending a report today for yesterday's data, or sending a report every Sunday for Monday to Saturday etc

 

We currently have Pro/PPU workspaces that we're trying to see if we can set up report subscriptions. So, Premium capacity solutions isn't an option for us

    To be totally honest as it stands today the report subscriptions do not allow this flexibility. You can vote for the ideas  at https://ideas.powerbi.com

     

    I personally use Power BI Robots (which is not free) but has all the requirements you are looking for and more.
