Usage Metrics Report - refresh fails because of missing UsageMetricsDataConnector.GetMetricsData
Hello! I downloaded the PBI from a generated Usage Metrics Report and I wanted to refresh manually it and build my visuals around the datasets.
But i dont have the UsageMetricsDataConnector.GetMetricsData module.
Can someone share it?

Hi Anonymous
If you download the pbix file from the Report->File->Download pbix file, the pbix file you open is a static file.
It holds data from the historical behavior.
To dig into the report data, or to build your own reports against the underlying dataset, you have two options:
-
Make a copy of the report in the Power BI service. See Save a copy of the Usage Metrics report later in this article for details.
-
Connect to the dataset from Power BI Desktop. For every workspace, the dataset has the name "Report Usage Metrics Model." See Establish a connection to a published dataset for details.
