    Hi powerbidev123 

    Yes, Power BI has full audit coverage across three layers:

     

    1. Entra ID Sign-in logs (entra.microsoft.com ->Sign-in logs, filter Application = Power BI )  shows successful, failed, and blocked login attempts with IP, location, and risk state.

    2.  Microsoft Purview Audit / Power BI Activity Log - tracks what users do inside Power BI (view, export, share, permission changes). Access via Purview portal or Get-PowerBIActivityEvent PowerShell.

    3. Defender for Cloud Apps (if licensed) - flags anomalies like impossible travel, mass download, or suspicious sharing.

     

    For long retention and alerting, stream all three into Microsoft Sentinel.
