Hi Team,
I am trying to programmatically create schedule refresh in each dataset,I am using refreshschedule api to achieve same
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/datasets/updaterefreshschedule
It is able to create refresh schedule but no option to provide email id , In Power bi ui I have option to tick email id instead of dataset owner and provide email id , but from api only 2 options available are NoNotification or MailOnFailure. Where I can provide email id ?
Regards,
Neha Oberoi
Hi @Anonymous
Currently there is no option to set the email id to receive email notifications via REST API. You could vote for below idea about this feature: Microsoft Idea · Email Notification for Many Users, for Failed Dataset Refresh via REST API (powerbi.com)
When you set notifyOption is MailOnFailure, it will send email notifications to dataset owner by default. However, if you add additional recipients in the Email these users when the refresh fails textbox in Power BI UI, these users can receive email notifications if a dataset refresh fails when triggered via API.

Hi,
I've tried below code, if I set MailOnFailure it fails and when I set NoNotification it passes. I want to send notification to owner.
$ScheduleJsonEnable = '{
"value":
{
"enabled":true,
"notifyOption":"MailOnFailure",
"days":["Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday"],
"times":["00:00","01:00","02:00","03:00","04:00","05:00","06:00","07:00","08:00","09:00","10:00","11:00","12:00","13:00","14:00","15:00","16:00","17:00","18:00","19:00","20:00","21:00","22:00","23:00"],
"localTimeZoneId":"UTC"
}
}'
