    Hi RuditMathews,

     

    To sum up :

    • Capacities & Groups → Fix by double-checking your tenant settings, SP should work
    • Activity Events (most viewed, top users) → You do need a real user account, no workaround with SP

    So you only need the real user account specifically for activity-based KPIs.

Hi, v-achippa 
The below part you mentioned I have already done. I have created the security group in azure portal and added that App registration in the security group. and readded the security group in Fabric. Still I'm getting a 401 response.


Go to the Admin Portal --> Tenant settings --> Admin API settings and enable ‘Allow service principals to use read-only admin APIs’.
