Add custom column to Usage Metrics
v-yuta-msft Jimmy, thanks for your reply. Yes, I am working within the restriction that the dataset is generated by the Power BI service. I have connected to the dataset and created my own custom report - I need guidance on how to create a custom column and/or measure to enrich the data set and allow me to report by the day of the week.
Anonymous ,
Could you share more details about your specific requirement and post some sample data?
Regards,
Jimmy Tao
v-yuta-msft Jimmy, I would like to add a custom column or measure to the Power BI generated usage metrics dataset so that I can monitor usage by day of the week - Sunday, Monday, Tuesday etc.. How do I create this additional data with the date values available. No sample data - all data is generated in the Power BI generated dataset.

v-yuta-msft Jimmy, please let me know if it is possible to "enrich" the Poerw BI metrics dataset with custom columns and/or related tables... or simply write a measure that mimics a custom column
Has this issue been resolved or does anybody have a solution? I have a use-case where I'd like to add a column to the user table indicating whether the person is a developer or a stakeholder. I have the data already in a local .xsls file but have not found any way to connect this to the report usage metrics in the Power Bi service.
