Extend the existing email subscription feature to allow me to specify exactly *when* the email is sent out - e.g. send me the email at 2pm every Monday.

RE: Allow customization of email subscription schedule
Having an email everytime it refreshed would be great
RE: Allow customization of email subscription schedule
Are there any updates on when this can be implemented? This functionality was available way back in the Crystal Report days (2008 I think?) and seems to be a standard in all reporting services today.
RE: Allow customization of email subscription schedule
It would be nice to have a weekdays only option.
RE: Allow customization of email subscription schedule
The subscription scheduled should have the below options for users to choose from...
1. Daily (Should be able to specify what time of day.)
2. Weekly (Should be able to specify what day and time.)
3. Monthly (Should be able to specify what date and time.)
4. Every time the dataset is refreshed.
5. Send email now.
RE: Allow customization of email subscription schedule
This would be a great feature and huge improvement. Have a report that is updated weekly, but it would be really good to choose the time, such that the user can receive the report weekly, by selecting the day before they have their weekly meeting.
One of the largest challenges by introducing Power BI to new customers is starting to use it. This definetely would help us a lot.
RE: Allow customization of email subscription schedule
It would be great to be able to get an email when ever the report/data has changed!
RE: Allow customization of email subscription schedule
SAP or Crystal Reports had this report scheduling function way back in 2008. Will it be a good time for Microsoft Power BI to keep up in 2018? We need it in 2008 and we need it now.
RE: Allow customization of email subscription schedule
Very useful feature if we could specify that email is sent once a month for users to check the report.
RE: Allow customization of email subscription schedule
Our users need a report every morning when they come in and right now we are not able to provide that with the current functionality
RE: Allow customization of email subscription schedule
If a user subscribe for day then he should get a snapshot of the report with only the days data as in case of SSRS
