Access to change log / change history

[_FB_]

Hello everybody,

in pbi service i am searching for a change log resp. change history of single reports. For example:

Two people are using one working area, both as an admin. User A has created a report, user B made a change to this report and saves it (in pbi service).

Is there an option that allows user A to see that user B was the last to change the report?

Best regards,

_FB_

Hi. The best way to capture changing history would be using a repository. It can be git integration with capacity or regular working with repo. That way you can capture the details.

However, if you are not using a git repo. The example you say could have some logs that help. The PowerBi activity logs will store for the last 30 days the operations made at PowerBi Service. You might find a log activity of the report that user A has created it, then you might have many random users with "ViewReport" operations and a publish report or modify report from user B. It won't specify details of the change but might become handy for your requirement.

You can find this last 30 days operations at the Admin Workspace (you need a fabric administrator role). You can also request this data to the Power Bi Rest API in case you want to build a historic dataset of the activity logs.

I hope that helps,
