Brief Description: Please add the users email address to the automated request for access emails.
Further Detail:
When users request access to a Power BI report via the service an automated email is sent to the owner of that report. This automated email contains the users first name and last name but no email address. Since there can be many people with the same name or users with multiple email addresses this makes it immensely challenging to reach out to them.
Furthermore, my team would like to put in place a Power Automate to send automated replies to these users with instructions on how to get access (Via Distribution Lists) but without the email address we are at a dead end.

RE: Request for Access User Email Address
If Microsoft can do it for Power Apps where the automated email comes with subject "Share request for Power Apps app [App Name]" and body containing Doe, John (John.Doe@[company].com) is requesting access to the Power Apps app [App Name] it is pity that the same is not part of the automated email for any Power BI related access request whether it is access to Report or Power BI App.The challenge, pain, dead end is the same :(
RE: Request for Access User Email Address
This is crucial for enterprise organisations where you have plenty of colleagues sharing the same name, so for unique identification email address inclusion would be great to have!
