New Usage Metrics Report across workspaces

I have a workspace that stores just datasets which reports in other workspaces connect to so just refreshing one datasets for many reports.  So there are multiple reports over a number of workspaces using the one dataset.
I've created a new usage metric report on a report in a workspace but the usage report only reports on itself and excludes any report in the workspace.

I'm guessing this is because the dataset isn't in the same workspace as the report I want to view the usage metrtics on.

Any sugestions?

Thanks for your reply and I already have access to usage audits logs however it does not provide the relevant usage by user data that I need where as the workspace usage reports do.

They do for us. The only limitation is that the audit logs don't go down to page level. Not an issue for our users (yet).

Ask your tenant admin to share the usage audit logs with you as appropriate.

I am one of the tenant admins and I have access to usage audit logs.  I need the new metrics reports to procide data when the dataset to a report is not is in the same workspace

As far as I know you cannot report on dataset utilization ( unless you look at the eviction statistics and DQ logs) . User activity is measured against reports and dashboards, regardless of their data sources.
