PowerBI refresh summary
Hi Friends,
Under 'Admin Portal' ->'Capacity setting'->'Refresh Summary', I don't see anything there? where is the 'switch' to show it? or it's permission/license related?
Thanks a lot!
Click on Capacity Settings, If you dont see any Premium Capacities in the list, then you are not an admin.

Hey River,
Are you a capacity admin ( or Power BI Admin)? I think only capacity admin can see the refreshes using that capacity. - RiverHelper IV

Hey River ,
I think that Tutu_in_YYC is correct - only the Admin can see this. The quickest and easiest way (in my mind) is to go to Admin Portal and Workspaces and sort by Capacity and that will tell you. But, if you really want to know what is refreshing where and what capacity it uses, the best data comes from the API calls.

collinq To run Rest API, one needs Power BI admin role. Are there APIs where you can run w/o having the role?

Good day. I also try to watch how to download the refresh history of reports in power bi service via admin portal. But it was empty. Could someone tells me, the license must be Premium for it? I have Pro license.
Thank you.- Tutu_in_YYCSuper User
unfortunately, the refresh summary section in the power bi admin portal is only for premium/dedicated capacity. It will not show refreshes for report on workspace with shared capacity (ie Pro)
Another option is to check the Monitor section, but it will only shows what you have access to.
