CPU & MEM consumption by workload gathered trough API

Good evening. 

 

Im trying to get the CPU consumption posted by capacity metrics trough an API to integrate it on my external monitoring system, but actually im not able to find the right register to point. 

 

Perhaps some of you have the same issue and can point me to the right address. 

 

Also with memory 🙂 

 

Thanks

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Based on my understanding, there is currently no Power BI Rest API to get CPU and memory consumption for capacity.

You can install the Power BI Premium Capacity Metrics app and then create your own reports using Desktop with live connection or DirectQuery mode to connect the CapacityMetrics dataset.
