API - ActivityEvents returns duplicate/excess logs
Have raised with Microsoft and turns out it is a known issue which is being investigated by the dev team; it's in their hands now.
Thanks lbendlin,
I've had a look at the three separate reports that have flagged this issue and each of them use DirectQuery, as for the number of visuals, I'm not sure what would be classed as excessive? One of the reports has what I'd say is quite a lot (20+) whereas another has 5.
The majority of our reports are linked via DirectQuery but have only seen this flag up on two days (since 1st October) and for two users, is there a known issue, or something I should be proactively filtering out for these views?
In my opinion anything more than 10 visuals on a page is excessive. See if you can combine some of them via small multiples, and drop others that do not provide value.
Keep doing what you are doing - good monitoring is a very important part of keeping your Power BI environment healthy.
Thanks lbendlin, I'll flag it back to the report owner to assess however not sure why the presence of more visuals would randomly appear as hundreds of duplicate report views, other users have accessed the same reports without this behaviour so assuming this is a bug in the API?
can you trace it back to the IP address of the report user? Maybe one user had the page open and then their cat was sitting on the F5 key.
