Power BI Service
I have a visual on the power BI desktop and published it to power bi service.
I tried sharing the report to myself and to another co worker and neither one of us received the email (the box is checked to send an email to recipient). Does anyone know what that didnt send?
Also, how does the sharing work. If I schedule a refresh and schedule emails will it refresh in the DB that I am connected to on the desktop?
How do I schedule a refresh and schedule to send emails automatically?
Any help you can provide is appreciated.
Thank you
Lori

- Hi there
Here are details on how to subscribe to a report

If you want the dataset to be updated/refreshed you have to set this up by going into the dataset settings and then enabling and getting the scheduled refresh working.
