Helper IISubsribe to reports using external email address
We are testing in Project Online and are pushing data to PowerBI via OData Feed.
Once we create reports, can we subscribe to reports using an email address outside of the POL active directory?
If not, then each user that wants to subscribe to the reports would have to have, at minimum, a license for Exchange Online and then have email forwarding active.
Hi rsmccall33,
Based on test, current power bi subscribe not support to send a email to outside users. It will send an email to yourself once the report has been update and you activate the subscribe function.
For your requirement, you can vote at below link:Subscribe *others* to emails of reports
Reference:
Subscribe to a Power BI report

rsmccall33I have verified my work around works. The user will have to have an Online account, and have Exchange Online license assigned. You can then go into the user settings and turn on email forwarding to the external account.
