Refresh the dataset in Power BI, sending the email notification only when the refresh is finished.

Hello Everyone,

I am new to Power BI and wanted to create a flow where after "refresh of dataset", the next step only gets triggered if the refresh is completed (If the refresh has changed the timestamp, we get a success message; if the refresh has failed or timeout then we get a failure message on outlook).

I see that some of the datasets take only few seconds while some take minutes. I used the "delay" action after the refresh, but I don't think it is a very effective.

Please let me know if anyone has a solution for it.

I have the same question (0)

You need to implement your own polling.

You can use a custom connector or use the Top=1 filter on the history.
