We have a group of people using Power BI reports, in which a Subscription is created by me is not visible by others. If we have an option to show the subscriptions like public or private in which public subscription can be visible for all the members who have access for those reports/part of subscription emails where as private subscription be visible only to the one who created.

This will help others to modify the Subscriptions when creator is not available

Administrator

Workspace Admins now have the ability to view, edit, and take over all subscriptions in the workspace which they are assign the Admin role. See the following doc for more details: https://docs.microsoft.com/power-bi/consumer/end-user-subscribe?tabs=admin#manage-subscriptions.

This will be very useful for admin's and the Groups that owns the workspace and shares responsibility of managing reports and its subscription. This will enable to remove dependencies of managing the subscription on a single user.

RE: subscription to be modified by multiple members

Please can the ideas be consolidated. There are more votes on this issue. The following are asking for the same thing:
Subscriptions visibility for workspace admins
Subscriptions Management Tool
Limited visibility into report subscriptions
Control of subscriptions
list of all reports subscriptions in the tenant
Manage all email subscriptions across all workspaces

RE: subscription to be modified by multiple members

The subscription should be tied to the workspace or report, not a particular user. It's insane that all the subscriptions I set up are simply deleted if I leave the company.

Another upvote. This is needed in an enterprise. We need to be able to satisfy business requirements when someone goes on vacation (or gets hit by a bus).

Also, we'd like to have the ability to see the subscription usage of Paginate reports.

RE: subscription to be modified by multiple members

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE ADD THIS!!!!!! This is an absolute must! Too many times we end up with duplicate efforts and multiple emails which causes more and more issues, especially when the emails have different links or comments (When they shouldn't), or a link is broken in one email and not in another (because someone sends the link for the Report and not the App or vise versa). When we do not know if a subscription was ever setup by another owner or admin it is a huge problem that is a basic necessity that needs immediate remedy....and to not know these simple things when we are working for a large organization is really not acceptable by Admin Standards. To prevent Arguments among staff (or headaches atleast), please, please allow the Admins to edit subscriptions, they can be trusted to help others as that is their job. Plus if someone retires or is no longer associated with a site, and/or the data being sent out is obsolete, we need to be able to adjust the subscriptions accordingly, or at bare minimum be able to pass on the job to someone else, but if we do not know it even exists, we can't do anything. THANK YOU!

Users are in need for a better administrative experience. Please consider making this feature for better usability in an enterprise organization.

RE: subscription to be modified by multiple members

Another vote here, the ability to see all subscriptions made by any user, makes for moving reports from workspace to workspace easier, so's not to break anything.. Not even knowing there is a subscription set is rather un -nerving..

Cheers

RE: subscription to be modified by multiple members

Please add this!!!! Would be helpful for multiple admins to control subscriptions especially when individuals are away from the office. Thank you :)
