Power BI Admin Get Activity Events

[Anonymous]

I am trying to match up out from Power BI Admin api  Get Activity and Get Reports. It doesn't look like the App Usage is captured in the activity logs or audit logs.    Is there a way to capture who uses a App in Power BI?

Hi @Anonymous ,

By calling the rest api, using the Admin - Get Activity Events module and setting the date range in the parameters, you are able to return a list of audit activity events for the user at the corresponding time. Refer to an api like the following.

https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/admin/activityevents?startDateTime='2022-01-17T10%3A55%3A00'&endDateTime='2022-01-17T11%3A55%3A00'&filter='UserId'

There is also a very high quality blog that you can use as a reference.

Hello,

Maybe I am overlooking something, but this does not answer the question how to monitor activity on Power BI Apps. On our side we want to nudge people in using apps instead of the workspace for consumers and therefore I want to monitor app usage (compared to workspace usage). I am not able to find app usage in the activity events API
