Power BI REST APIs - Get Activity Events - report pages activity

Hi Community,

 

Im trying to extract activity events using the PwBI REST API but noticed that I can't go further that "report" level and I want to mimic the standard usage metric report which can report at the "page" level.

When exploring the JSON response, I noticed the key-value pair: 
"ArtifactKind": "Report" and I was wondering if there is a way to request a next level in, perhaps, "ArtifactKind": "Page") to get activity at that level uising the API.

 

Can this be done?

Is there another way?

Is possible to get events/activity at that level extracted?

 

Thanks!

      This is defintely a strange miss by MSFT. Many users and business partners consider "pages" to be "reports", and to see that level of granularity is important. The fact that they are included in the workspace usage metrics shows MSFT understands this, but getting them workspace by workspace when you have several workspaces to do metrics on but are not the administrator of the tenant is tedious.
