Power BI: 3 Minute Tips - Email Subscriptions

In this quick Power BI tutorial, we set up an email subscription for a published report. Subscriptions automatically send you an email with a snapshot of the dashboard or report every time the data refreshes!

Very happy with tip. Please advise how I can increase the size of emailed report as I don't see any option to increase or format email format in Power BI

Any idea if the report attachment can be encrypted?

Or

Will the power bi link which is sent in email point to the report with a snapshot of that time only? Let's say Friday 3.15 am the report is sent but when user comes on Monday and click on the link. Will the report show snapshot data as of Friday or data as of Monday? (assume data was changed on Saturday and Sunday)

I need to schedule my report monthly on certain day e.g. in Oct. I want to schedule it on 28th Oct and in Nov. on 21st Nov and some other dates in Dec and so on. May you suggest what can be the way ?

Hey hi. That's clear explanation. But, I wonder if you can explain me this issue which iam facing. Whenever, I receive mail its redirected to spams, instead of main inbox. Can you please help me with this.

New to Power BI. I understand the Subscription feature is very much same as Scheduling. Both of the feature refreshes on the desired set time and can be send as email to the recipients. Can you please explain the difference in subscription and scheduling in Power BI

Hi BI Elite, do you use 3rd party apps like Power BI Reports to increase the size of emailed report? I can't find it in Power BI.

Is there a way to send the email out on only certain days like on Monday morning every week? Thoughts on how I can do that?

Hello. Every time i refresh My data (from excel) the subscription desappears. Do You have any idea how to fix it? Thanks a lot

One of the most frustrating features (or lack of it) is not being able to send an email at a specific minute. For some weird reason, a multi billion dollar company like Microsoft could only offer setting up a subscription at 15th, 30th, 45th and 0th min.
