Hi  @emmabr ,

According to the official documentation tips:

FAQs about Troubleshoot subscribing to dashboards and reports - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

The Subscribe option is missing or greyed out.

If you can’t use the subscription feature, contact your Power BI administrator, or IT help desk. Your organization may have disabled this feature, generally or specifically for external users, or a maximum subscriber limit may have been reached.

Your organization may configure certain settings in Azure Active Directory that limit the ability to use email subscriptions in Power BI. These limitations include, but aren't limited to, having multifactor authentication or IP range restrictions when accessing resources.

Hi,

It appears to be an issue for just one User, they can access the App/reports and are not an external User

I'm not sure what I could do next, is there a way to check if the App has reached the subscriber limit?

 

Thanks,

 

Emma
