Refresh Dataset in Group Rest API RetryCount Behavior

I have a custom connector using this REST API: Datasets - Refresh Dataset In Group - REST API (Power BI Power BI REST APIs) | Microsoft Docs

 

This is the body definition:

{ "notifyOption": "MailOnFailure",

  "retryCount": 3

}

 

If I leave retryCount as blank, notifyOption sends an email notification. But if retryCount has a value, the email notification is no longer working. Is this the expected behaviour or am I missing something here?

Update: Microsoft recommended updating the body to script below:

$body = "{
  'notifyOption': 'MailOnFailure',
  'retryCount': 3,
   'applyRefreshPolicy' : 'True',
   'type' : 'Full'
}"

But didn't really work for me. 

Hi!
Is this working now?

Hi, @SeaSprite 

I think you are already following the other question where I posted what I believe is the problem, but I will share here too. It seems to be a limitation for shared capacities - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/datasets/refresh-dataset-in-group#limitations

Hello, @gabrielfonseca


We are on Premium capacity. I've reached out to support and they are also puzzled with the behavior. 

 

Please let us know what they find out.

How do you know that the email notification is no longer working?

Because I'm no longer receiving emails. 🙂

Understand, but has the refresh actually completed?

Yes!
