Report Server Monitoring

4Eric,

You can also monitor the following items.

1. Who is viewing reports?
2. Which reports are the most popular?
3. When are reports being executed?
4. What is performance like (any slow reports?)?
5. What % of the workload is Power BI reports versus other report types?

Hey there, 

There are several queries on the web that will help you combine all that static analytics. Depending on the tool you use to report themout, you may end up creating a virtual dimensional model. I have twicked some from the web to do my bit of report tracking i hope it helps.

Subscription tracking query (what's missing can be collected and staged from the logfiles, something I have not worked on yet) : 

select
convert(varchar(1000),case
when Cat.Type = 13 then 'Hyperlink to dashboard'
else 'Hyperlink to Paginated reports'
end) collate Latin1_General_CI_AS as RootPath ,
convert(varchar(1000),CAT.[Path]) collate Latin1_General_CI_AS as Path,
CAT.Name,
S.[SubscriptionID],
S.[Report_OID],
S.[DeliveryExtension],
S.[ExtensionSettings],
Owner.[UserName] as OwnedBy,
Modified.[UserName] as ModifiedBy,
S.[ModifiedDate],
S.[Description],
case when left(S.[LastStatus],9) = 'Completed' then 'Y' else 'N' end as IsRefreshSuccessful,
S.[LastStatus],
S.[EventType],
S.[Parameters],
S.[DataSettings],
A.[TotalNotifications],
A.[TotalSuccesses],
A.[TotalFailures],
S.[LastRunTime],
CAT.[Type]
from
ReportServer.dbo.[Subscriptions] S
inner join ReportServer.dbo.[Catalog] CAT on S.[Report_OID] = CAT.[ItemID]
inner join ReportServer.dbo.[Users] Owner on S.OwnerID = Owner.UserID
inner join ReportServer.dbo.[Users] Modified on S.ModifiedByID = Modified.UserID
left outer join ReportServer.dbo.[SecData] SD on CAT.[PolicyID] = SD.[PolicyID] AND SD.AuthType = Owner.AuthType
left outer join ReportServer.dbo.[ActiveSubscriptions] A with (NOLOCK)
on S.[SubscriptionID] = A.[SubscriptionID]
where
(S.[ReportZone] = 0)
and (S.[EventType] = 'RefreshCache'
OR S.[EventType] = 'DataModelRefresh' )

Report Stats:
