Datasets have the option to "Email these users when the refresh fails" but there is no corresponding option for dataflows.

I would like to see the same capability added to dataflows to email a number of users if the refresh fails.

Emailing other users now exists for dataflows.

RE: Email these users when the refresh fails for dataflows

Seems like a simple addition. Copy the same code used for the dataset email option. At this time, I have to manage this with an Outlook rule to forward the message to the help desk service email. But if ownership of the dataflow should change, this same rule would need to be set up for the new owner.
