How to Make Data Activator Trigger Only Once Per Day Without Modifying Power BI?

[anushenoy]

Hi Fabric Community,

We have a Power BI dashboard that tracks error counts, and we want to set up Data Activator to trigger an alert only once per day when errors occur. However, our Power BI dataset refreshes at irregular intervals, and Data Activator checks the dataset every 3600 seconds (1 hour) by default, which can cause multiple alerts.

We don’t want to modify the Power BI table (e.g., adding flags or timestamps) use Power Automate. Is there any setting in Data Activator itselft that allows us to limit the trigger frequency to only once per day?

Would adjusting “When it has been true for N times”, “Number of times”, help in ensuring only one alert is fired per day regardless of Power BI refresh timing?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Your requirement is incompatible with the idea of a trigger.

If you need a scheduled report, create a scheduled report.
