    Hi, JasperBaert 

     

    You can see that there may be a 48-hour delay. And you can use audit logs to monitor the operation on the powerbi service, if it is desktop, there is no way to monitor it.

    Reference:Track user activities in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

     

    Did I answer your question? Please mark my reply as solution. Thank you very much.
    If not, please feel free to ask me.

    Hi, v-janeyg-msft 

    Thanks for the info. It is indeed true that EditDatasetFromExternalApplication is getting external tool events.
    Although possible to get those activities en link them to the DatasetId. It is not possible FTM to get those activities from "Get Activity" Rest API's. Only AUDIT LOGS can get these ExternalApplication changes.

    Kind Regards
