How to setup email notification in case of Service availability issues?

[remy_guitton]

Hi, 

I am looking for a way to receive alerts automatedly in case of a service availability issue on Power BI.

The link below shows a status by region but I could not find a way to receive alerts when there is an issue on our subscription.

You could also link the webpage from your post to a Power BI tile and then follow the steps outlined in this post to receive updates on it: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Setup-data-alerts-Email/m-p/847246

Thank you for your answer, I was more looking for a way that does not rely on Power BI because if the service is indeed not available, I guess I will not receive the expected alert.

Isn't there a similar system to Azure Service Health?

Unfortunately, I do not see Power BI listed in the available services there.

You could set up an automatic refresh and list an email to receive an alert in case of a failed refresh.
