Subscription only once when data is refreshed
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 ,
If you select the “After Data Refresh” option will operate the same way it did previously for e-mail subscriptions, meaning it will only be sent after the first data refresh of your dataset each day. Selecting the daily option will send the mail every day at the time you select, while the weekly option will give you the flexibility to choose specific days.

Thanks Anand24 and V-lianl-msft for the time you took to answer me. Sorry, but still did not get it.
My question is about the behaviour of the daily subscription when the dataset is not refresh.
Just to be clear. I am not asking about notifications for when the dataset faills the refresh nor asking for general directions.

Them I have a bug. I set it to only when the data is refreshed and I am receiving the mail daily.
Hi hasenclever ,
This needs to be based on how you subscribe.
All subscriptions that have the frequency set to After data refresh will only send an email after the first scheduled refresh on that day.
If it's just daily, it doesn't matter whether it's refreshed or not, it's only related to the set time.
