    hasenclever,

     

    My question is specific to understand, for instance, on a dataset that is not schedule to refresh and I do only manual refreshed it. Will I receive the subscription mail every day, or only when I refresh it manually? Hope that is clearer.

    Ans:

    1. Only when you refresh it manually for the first time in a day if frequency is set to "After data refresh(Once Daily)".

    2. Everyday if frequency is set to "Daily" irrespective of whether you refresh the data or not.

Hi hasenclever ,

 

There is a checkbox and a text area at bottom in Workspace Settings -> Datasets -> Scheduled Refresh which enables you to send email notification if data refresh fails.

 

1. For Notifying Dataset Owners, check/tick the checkbox for "Send refresh failure notification emails dataset owner"

2. For Notifying anyone else, provide email ids of recipients in "Email these users when the refresh fails" textbox
