Get Refresh History

Hello,

 

On my tenant, I'm Power BI administrator and Capacity administrator. But I am not administrator on each Workspace.

I need to see all refresh duration of all datasets of my power BI capacity, even if I'm not administrator on all workspaces.

 

I tried to get history refresh using the API "Datasets - Get Refresh History In Group", but it seems that I can not get history of datasets refresh  that I'm not the Workspace Administrator. And I can not use this with service principal.

 

Is there a way to get all history refresh without being workspace Administrator? Because I'm Power BI administrator and Capacity administrator on my tenant. 

 

Thanks for your feedback

Hi,@nicolasf 

You may try it in admin portal > capacity settings > refresh summary.

Hi @nicolasf,

I think you want to use the following API:
Capacities - Get Refreshables For Capacity 

With the $expand option you can get related entities inline, e.g. groups (=workspaces). Have a look at the 2nd example.
