Create a hub in the Power BI service to centrally manage all 'alerts's. I could have multiple 'alerts's set across multiple dashboards and I would want to see them all in one place, with the ability to manage (add/delete/edit).

RE: centrally manage alerts

This is needed for admins/authors to efficiently manage all users' 'alerts's across all reports, so each user does not have to do it.

RE: centrally manage alerts

Please vote for this feature. We need an enterprise level 'alerts'ing solution with a Monitoring Dashboard.

The current 'alerts'ing solution does not scale well a can become a maintenance nightmare.

Building the 'alerts' Pipeline:
1. Each Metric has to be add to a Dashboard.
2. An 'alerts' can be added to each Dashboard Tile.
3. A Flow routine then has to be built to send 'alerts's to a team alias.

Sliced versions of a Metric require individual Dashboard Tiles, 'alerts's, and Flows.

Anytime a Dashboard Tile breaks or the Report Metric configuration changes the 'alerts' Pipeline has to be rebuilt.

RE: centrally manage alerts

This would be a useful feature. Many use cases in BI will benefit from notifications/'alerts's.

In the enterprise we can't rely on users setting up 'alerts's.
