Sending Notifications when numbers change

Hi Experts :))

 

Is there a way where I can automate notifications if a certain number increased by X$ to send an email or notify a certain person?

 

Thanks,

Amr

    Yes, you can set Alerts on a Dashboard (Note: NOT a Report, you'll need to create a Dashboard from your Report) and have Power BI Service send email alerts when a value on a Card or Gauge visualisation goes over (or under) a threshold. You need to create a measure that shows the increase % , put that on a Card visual on your Report, pin that Card visual to a Dashboard, then set up Alerts on that Dashboard.

    More detail here : Set data alerts in the Power BI service - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

    Hope this helps
