How to Schedule a report in email's body

Anonymous · ‎12-12-2022

Hello Data Enthusiasts,
Can I schedule a Power BI report in the email's body?
I know about report subscriptions. But I want to put the report in the body of the mail, instead of just sending the link.

Kindly suggest.

Regards,
AJP

It seems PowerBI cannot do that yet (= format table reports into email body as HTML<table> with inline styles).
However, alternative BI tools that can do that. For example, SeekTable can do that: tables are placed into body as (all custom HTML formattings are preserved) and report looks exactly as in a web view.

You may check how it works here:

Open http://demo.seektable.com/report/f1117f18a5954782b326c87bc607bbdc
Click on "Share" -> "By Email" and keep "Include report widgets into email body" checked

Reports delivery may be easily automated with built-in "Subscribe to report" or via SeekTable API with Power Automate / Zapier (or even curl).

@VahidDM Hello,
Thanks for your input. But I want a way where reports can be scheduled to recipients and the dashboard snapshot goes in the body of the mail. Where anyone can see the dashboard in the mail itself. so that they don't have to open PDF or go to the dashboard using the link.
