We’d hoped we’d have a good way to bring this functionality to the server – however, similarly to Export to PDF, after a lengthy evaluation of all the options and required investments, we’re not planning to bring this feature to the server at this time.

RE: Email subscriptions for Power BI reports in Report Server
We have been holding off on expansion of Power BI in the organization since emailed reports on a set schedule is the primary form of delivery we need for various reasons.
Row level security limitations on subscriptions are also a huge impediment to further rollout.

this is a must.

Great - and by the way - it should be possible with a mail 'alerts' that not only works in Power BI Pro (I'm guessing it would be solved with a link to the report) but also in Power BI embedded (I do not know how to solve this by a link, when it regards a third party website (that is not Sharepoint).

So much needed
RE: Email subscriptions for Power BI reports in Report Server
We are really looking forward for this feature asap!
RE: Email subscriptions for Power BI reports in Report Server
Agreed with so many others that this is a vital feature, other wise we are stuck with SSRS clunky reports which are very static and extremely difficult to theme and template.

This tool from Devscope fit this need.. www.powerbitiles.com/pbirobots
I try it and it's very easy to use. Basically we can select dashboards/reports, schedule and select the email destination.

Yes, This is a key feature as more and more customers are on boarding Power BI.

This is needed. From a user perspective "easy" wins every time, regardless of how tech savvy they are. If it is easier for a user to open their email and find a static pdf waiting for them, that will be their method of choice, and they can easily forward this along to other interested parties.

Subscriptions are a huge part of SSRS. Why was it not a basic feature of Power BI? Makes me wonder if Microsoft really has a clue about its customers needs.
