Power automate for Power BI for sending reports

Hello all, 
I'm still new to power bi and have a question regarding using power automate. I've read posts where people are using power automate to send reports to end-users. My question is what is the purpose of that since I can automate the process of sending reports to end-users through power bi service by subscribing them to the report.  I'm currently using power bi pro.
Thank you in advance.

It allows more control over what is sent. Subscriptions are great unless you need more granularity or want the actual report sent as a PDF - particular pages, something other than a daily or weekly schedule, etc. Typically the best way to sent reports via Power Automate is for Paginated Reports in a Premium Workspace.
