Support for "Add Alert" Functionality in Embedded Power BI Reports/Dashboards

Hi v-kaparmar ,

It is not available to set  data alerts on embedded dashboards.  But, you can set the alert on the orginal dashboard itself.  Or, you could set up a Power Automate.

Here is a link to the release roadmap Microsoft Power Platform 2025 release wave 1 plan overview | Microsoft Learn  I do not see anything in there about alerts but you can see if there is anything I missed.

Hi v-kaparmar 

As of now, the “Add Alert” functionality—used in Power BI Service to set up threshold-based notifications on visuals like KPIs, cards, and gauges—is not supported in embedded scenarios, even when using Fabric capacity. This limitation applies to both App Owns Data and User Owns Data embed models. Microsoft has not yet made this feature available through the Power BI JavaScript API or any embed configuration options, and it does not appear in the immediate public roadmap as a planned enhancement. However, there are workarounds to replicate alert-like behavior in embedded reports. A common approach is to implement custom logic on your backend that monitors the underlying data—using scheduled queries or Azure Logic Apps/Power Automate—and triggers alerts (emails, in-app notifications, etc.) based on thresholds. You can also design KPIs in Power BI with color or text indicators, and then use the Power BI JavaScript API to programmatically check visual state or pass filter context, allowing your application to respond with custom alerts. While these solutions are not as seamless as native alerts, they offer flexibility and integration with your app’s own notification system until Microsoft enables official support for this feature in embedded experiences.

Hi  v-kaparmar 

Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum. 

I would also take a moment to thank  Poojara_D12  and collinq , for actively participating in the community forum and for the solutions you’ve been sharing in the community forum. Your contributions make a real difference. 

Just to clarify, the "Add Alert" feature isn't supported in embedded Power BI reports right now. This applies to both App Owns Data and User Owns Data models, even if you're using Fabric capacity. So, you can't set threshold-based alerts (like on KPIs or cards) directly in an embedded report. At the moment, alerts are only available in the Power BI Service, not in embedded scenarios.
