Needs VotesAllow flexibility in the number of failures before disabling scheduled refresh

Currently, if a scheduled refresh fails four times in a row, Power BI disables the refresh.
This can give under half a day to fix an error. If a report is not business critical, the priority this fix is given can fall outside that time period. Ideally, we would like up to a week before disabling the refresh, so we can fix errors without manually having to turn back on the scheduled refresh for each report.

RE: Allow flexibility in the number of failures before disabling scheduled refresh
Hello, I haven't observed any communication regarding whether the dynamic restriction to the number of schedules before refreshing is being considered. Many of our refreshes rely on loads, and four times seems quite limited.
RE: Allow flexibility in the number of failures before disabling scheduled refresh
this is very annoying since on of our refresh is dependent on frequent loads.
RE: Allow flexibility in the number of failures before disabling scheduled refresh
Agreed. Not only should the parameter be configurable but it would also help if the system could send out a different email subject line to alert of the "disabled refresh". This would make it easier for us to manage through Outlook.
RE: Allow flexibility in the number of failures before disabling scheduled refresh
This is a "No brainer". If our internet goes down, I have to log on to re-enable the scheduled refresh. This means that the refresh service in not fully automated. User should be able to set the refresh failure behavior. Our PowerBi reports are "mission critical" in our manufacturing process. Please advise.
