PBIRS Web Analytics

My environment an on premise PBIRS, running many .pbix and .rdl reports. I need to monitor which reports is mostly used by users.

 

I added Google analytics in my "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Power BI Report Server\PBIRS\ReportServer\Pages\ReportViewer.aspx" file and works for .rdl files, but not to .pbix. When a .rdl file is open, google script is able to capture trafic, this not occurs with .pbix files.

 

How can I use a web analytics for my PBI portal ?

We do this by just running reports over the execution log (see here for details on accessing this log https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/report-server/report-server-executionlog-and-the-executionlog3-view?view=sql-server-ver15 ) We've actually gone a bit further and we copy the data out of the logs into our data warehouse (as the log records are only retained for something like 90 days be default) and we built an SSAS model over the top of that so we have Power BI dashboards showing usage trends for the last 3 years. This means we don't need to do unsupported changes to PBIRS and none of the data needs to be sent offsite.

I had seen you suggested solution, but imagine in a worldwide portal, I need to get country, location and others informations that ExeccutionLog3 not provide, but google analytics do.
