It would be helpful to be able to set up a distribution list of those to send refresh failure notifications to. Currently, only the owner receives an email, but we have several administrators that require notification when certain reports fail.

RE: Send Refresh Failure Notifications to Distribution List
this was implemented but does not work with distribution lists. It will only email additional individual users, still will not email a distro for some reason.
RE: Send Refresh Failure Notifications to Distribution List
There are times when the refresh of a dataset returns a change to the data that breaks a visual on a published report page. Example: an unaccounted for divide by zero error could cause an error in the data or a non-numeric value shows up in the data that expects only numeric values.
A notification should be sent when a visual is broken in published reports after a scheduled refresh. The email should be sent to the administrators of the report so that they can look into the issue before users report the issue to them.

Might be implemented but is bare bones and is flaky as giving one little confidence in it. Always needing periodically to manually check if the auto refreshes are actually working.
And then update the emails again.

This Power BI Idea has been implemented and works great. Doesn't anyone know how to mark this idea as implemented and complete?

Item is available
RE: Send Refresh Failure Notifications to Distribution List
It would be helpful to have email notifications if a one-drive refresh has failed for a data set just like with scheduled refreshes from the data warehouse
RE: Send Refresh Failure Notifications to Distribution List
Allow email notification at failed refresh also to external users as some users are assisted from external users of other tenants or has to notify that reports are not update for some reason.

Message a particular Microsoft Teams channel when refresh fails.
RE: Send Refresh Failure Notifications to Distribution List
This should indeed be marked as implemented
RE: Send Refresh Failure Notifications to Distribution List
This has already been implemented. On Power BI online go to to the settings section in any dataset you have. On the Scheduled Refresh section, go to the bottom part and there you can find the "email these users when the refresh fails" section, you just need to enter the emails of the persons you want to be notified of the failure.
I hope this helps.
