Hi @db042190 

 

Here's a detailed description of subscriptions and dynamic subscriptions and the differences between them

 

Power BI Subscriptions allow you to subscribe to reports and dashboards that are important to you. When you subscribe, Power BI emails a snapshot of the report or dashboard to your inbox based on the frequency and time you specify. You can set up to 24 subscriptions per report or dashboard, providing unique recipients, times, and frequencies for each subscription. For more details on setting up and managing these subscriptions, please refer to the Email subscriptions for reports and dashboards in the Power BI service - Power BI | Microsoft Learn.

Power BI Dynamic Subscriptions, on the other hand, offer a more personalized approach. They are designed to distribute a personalized copy of a paginated report to each recipient of an email subscription. You define which view of the report an individual receives by specifying which parameters are applied to their version of the report. This feature is particularly useful for distributing reports that need to be customized for each recipient based on certain criteria. It's worth noting that dynamic subscriptions are currently in PREVIEW and are only available for paginated reports. For a comprehensive guide on how to set up dynamic subscriptions, please visit the Create a dynamic subscription for a paginated report (Preview) - Power BI | Microsoft Learn.
