Hi RMV

 

Can you check in Access list, near by his name should be in 'Can View'. If it is different they may not get dashboards and mail.

 

Unshare and share again to that person.

Hi Gnanasekar,

 

it said Cancel Invite.

I though Can View shows that the respective person has entered the dashboard after he's invited.

Cancel Invite shows that the respective person has not entered the dashboard.

I don't think we can assume that he didn't receive email invitation, do you think so?

    Yeah correct. 

     

    I think he wasn't login power bi services one time also.

     

    Please inform him, login to power bi service. then only he can get notifications and invitations from power bi team.

     

    Only 'Can View' can get dashboard and its invitations.

      Hi Gnanasekar,

      I don't think that's the case.

      Others who hadn't sign up for power bi before, can still receive email invitation from us and accessed the dashboard perfectly with the link sent from the email invitation.

        Even external users who are not in Power BI should get the invitation.

         

        RMV - a few questions:

        Is your recipient getting other emails to his inbox from external organizations?

        Is he added as a B2B user to your organization? If you do not know what B2B is, then do the following steps:

         

        1. Go to the access pane, remove him.
        2. Go back to share, enter his name and see whether Power BI autocompletes his name. If it does, then he is a B2B user and that flow is not supported yet.
