Adding Alerts and Subscriptions

Alerts can be configured on the tiles of dashboards to provide a notification that a specific condition has been met. Alert rules and options can be managed in the Power BI service, and notifications can be limited to the notification center in Power BI or shared via email. Data-driven alerts enhance the value of Power BI dashboards, as they immediately bring attention to significant events or outcomes as the semantic model supporting the dashboard tile is refreshed.

Power BI dashboards and reports also support subscriptions. Subscriptions send images and links of refreshed reports and dashboards directly to user inboxes according to the defined schedule. Additionally, paginated report subscriptions can be configured to attach report data to subscription emails in common file formats such as Excel and PDF.
