Request to add a feature to extract gateway connection status and last time credentials used

Could you please add a feature in the admin UI on Microsoft Fabric/Power BI to extract the Gateway connections with details of the gateway connection status and last activity information along with the connection name, users, and connection type.

Current Limitation

Administrators can manage gateways through the Power BI Service, but there is currently no simple way to use PowerShell to extract operational details such as:

  • Gateway connection status (Online/Offline)
  • Last successful connection timestamp

This capability is important for our internal stakeholders from an audit and governance perspective, as it would help maintain a streamlined and well-governed Power BI environment.

As part of the company's cloud modernization initiative, our internal teams are planning to extract connection information to identify which connections are still required and which can be safely decommissioned. This analysis is necessary to identify on-premises server dependencies and develop a migration plan to the cloud.

Currently, because there is no way to determine which connections are active and which are inactive, it looks like the exercise becomes complex. Having this functionality available would greatly improve visibility, governance, and migration planning efforts. Thanks.
