Power BI dashboard subscription email not awaiting refresh of all data sources

When subscribing to a dashboard based on multiple reports/data sources it appears that subscription email fires when first data source is refreshed. In my case the data sources are tabular with refresh setting to refresh every 15 minutes; tabular cubes refresh daily.  Since email subscription is daily and since, in our case, the cubes refresh daily I peopose a desired solution would be to control which data sources must be refreshed before daily email is sent.

Hi @KenVraagaard,

 

Many people have been aware of this scenario. Please vote this idea: allow-customization-of-email-subscription-schedule. This feature could come out soon.

 

Please refer to: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Email-Subscriptions-Public-Preview-Feedback/m-p/114795#U114...

 

Best Regards!

I don't see any mention of the problem i am reporting in links you provide. Furthermore, the suggested feature enhancement you suggest i vote for is not necessarily solving the problem i am reporting. I apologize if my problem reporting is inadequate and leads to misunderstanding but as it stands i feel the dashboard email subscription is not usable in current state. And I feel your posting is taking away from the seriousness of the problem.

 

BR, Ken
