There is no option E-mail in SSRS data-driven subscription

Question

I want to create data-driven subscription for my SSRS report.

I need to send reports by e-mail for users. But there is no option E-mail in "Specify how recipients are notified". Screenshot attached.

Why E-mail option doesn't exist here?

P.S.Using SSRS 2012, OS Windows 8.

My guess would be some kind of email service has to be set up first. — Tab Alleman, Aug 18 '14 at 13:19

You need to make sure the Report Server has its E-mail Settings configured, e.g. in Reporting Services Configuration Manager:

Once this is set up the email option for subscriptions should become available.

If you set all this up and you still cant see it, make sure you have connected to the right instance of SSRS. – Jeremy Thompson Mar 22 '18 at 22:43
