If a report owner declines a Power BI report access request, does the user get notified via email?

If a report owner declines a Power BI report access request that is received via the service, does the requesting user get notified via email of the Decline?

Asking because we generally provide access via AD groups and DLs, so we may decline an individually requested report access request directly in the Service itself, but will be providing access via adding the user to an AD group or DL. Concerned if the user gets notified that their report access request has been declined, because in reality it hasn't - it is just being provided via another avenue.  We prefer not to provide one-off permissions to reports via the Service.

Hi  @UNCBear03 ,

After testing, after being denied access, neither the user's email nor the Power BI Service's infobox will be notified of the relevant information
