Report Usage Metric - automatic refresh

Hi,

I have created a Report Usage Metrics showing the usage data of my main report. I'am not able to find any info about auto refresh this Report Usage Metric data. I cannot find Semantic Model to this report even If I saved it into my premium workspace. Is it auto refreshing every set time interval or do I have to generate a new Usage Metrics Report when I want to see the new data?

Hi @Anonymous 

 

The Report Usage Metrics in Power BI are designed to auto-refresh daily. This means you do not need to manually generate a new Usage Metrics Report to see updated data.

 

The metrics report relies on a semantic model that Power BI automatically creates and refreshes on a daily basis to ensure you have the latest usage data available.

 

However, the semantic model that uses the metrics is managed by Power BI and is not exposed directly to the user like other datasets, so you don't see it.
