Hi dmarques ,

 

You can use the usage metrics report.

It will get you the data you want.

For more information, you can refer this documentation:

Monitor usage metrics in workspaces (preview) - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

    Hi,

    Thanks, but as this is not my area, I still have a few questions. I'm not a Power BI user, so I don't have a Power BI license, so no dashboards are shared with me. But I'm a global admin on the tenant, so I've got access to admin portal.

    So, is it possible to access this metrics on the admin portal, without going to each report as you shown on the screenshots?

    Also, I would like to get something global, not dashboard by dashboard, is that possible?
    Thanks
