Report Usage Metrics Report & Dataset
Hello All
I'm connecting to the report usage data set to undertake some additional analysis etc.
When i compare report views with the old style usage report all the numbers balance, however if you compare with the New Style Usage Report there are some differences, just 1 or 2 views for a small number of users, but these differences add up.
is this a bug in the system? are the new and old using the same underlying data set? because there doesnt appear to be any obvious distinction when you connect
Thanks Andy
HI andybamber ,
The usage metrics are different between the new and old versions. I will give two links below to the different experiences. However, I can tell you that the roadmap currently has some "get the new to include some of the stuff from the old" so it becomes a bit more of an apples-to-apples experience.
Also note - the older usage metrics have a greater history length than the new ones do right now.
The old workspace usage metrics:
Monitor usage metrics in classic workspaces - Power BI | Microsoft Docs
The new workspace usage metrics:
