Manage usage statistics and metrics also for "analyze in Excel"

Hi, in our company we have  aset of "heavy" users for the "anlyze in Excel" funcionality.

Unfortunately it is not possible to produce any usage metrics regating that functionality have few dataset that, checking only the report usage, seem very low/not interesting in reality are used very frequently but only as Excel PowerPivot.

Is it possible to define/identify those usages as well? (maybe not every interaction, but things like open,refresh etc...)

'Analyze in Excel' activity usage is recorded on tenant level , so you might need to approach your Orgs Power BI admin/ O365 admin to provide you the details with respect to the workspaces you need . sharing the links to relevant documentation.
