You are supposed to use the auditing extracts and (if you are on Premium capacity) the "Power BI Premium Capacity Metrics" app template to collect that data from your tenant.

It's only collected on an hourly basis so you will want to put a lower threshold for triggering an action (say, 85% memory utilization).  They recently introduced new alerting features.

again - for Premium only.
