Logging activity
can it be possible for power bi administrator to modify the logging functionality or properties for capturing items relevant to the business.?
Hi powerbiexpert22,
Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Fabric Community.
No, users or power bi administrators cannot override, delete, or modify power bi logs. Whether it is the Power BI Activity Log or the Microsoft 365 Audit Log, these logs are maintained by microsoft in a secure format, read only format to ensure data integrity, compliance and auditing.

Hi powerbiexpert22 -Power BI captures audit logs and activity logs based on what Microsoft has already designed. These are fixed schemas- meaning you get events like "Viewed Report," "Shared Dashboard," "Exported Data," and so on, but you can't change what is recorded or add extra business-specific fields natively.No, a standard Power BI administrator Power BI Service Admin cannot directly modify or customize the built-in logging functionality
ms official reference links:
Admin - Get Activity Events - REST API (Power BI Power BI REST APIs) | Microsoft Learn
Search the audit log | Microsoft Learn
Hope i answered to your query.
