Refresh Failed emails should contain tenant/workspace info

I am a consultant that manages multiple Power BI tenants (with multiple workspaces each). When I receive an email letting me know a refresh has failed, I can usually identify which tenant / workspace it is associated with by the report name. However, many reports (like the usage metrics report) are not unique to a client, so I can't tell which tenant/client I need to review without clicking the link to navigate to the failed report.

Would be helpful to have tenant and workspace info on these alerts.

RE: Refresh Failed emails should contain tenant/workspace info

Definitely agree this would be useful as I have the same issue.As a workaround, you could potentially set up refresh failure notifications to be sent to an email address using Plus Addressing (eg. powerbi+tenant@supportemail.com) which will somewhat tag the emails with which tenant it's on.https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/recipients-in-exchange-online/plus-addressing-in-exchange-online
