Hi All,
I want to collect data regarding all the refreshes that occurs on datasets within our PowerBI Workspaces. We are currently using the "Admin - Get Activity Events" API to be able to capture the activities that occur and then filtering those activities for the activity "RefreshDataset".
However when I compare the information against by the PowerBI Workspace records of refresh (dataset -> settings - > refresh dataset), I find that none of the refresh datetimes present on the refresh history page match any of the refreshes captured by the get activity events api.
I am not certain which of the following is the case:
Are there any workarounds or reasonings behind the non-sync between the api and the refresh history information? I need it for an audit report.
Many thanks
Patrick
