Power Platform storage capacity usage

Our organisation got alert that the power platform storage usage are over capacity. But how do I know where is the usage coming from? We only use power BI embeded, and not other power platform stuff. Is it something caused by power BI?

Nothing of this is coming from Power BI. Your culprit is PowerApps.  Likely some overzealous developer who tried to use a Dataverse data source without a license.

Positng the answer I got from power platform forum if anyone else is also interested in this topic. Basically they said this is automatic from microsoft....not sure why though...

@lbendlin Is there a way to stop these email bombs? We just kept receiving them.

Consult the tenant audit logs, identify the offender, and make them remove their data. Or - buy more licenses.

Logs said it's "CDSUserManagement" who uses it, which is not helpful at all
