Report Usage Metrics - Tracking via Teams, SP?

Hi,

if I embedd a report (via workspace or app) in Teams or Share Point, will my report usage metrics be counted? Or is that solely when users access it through the service?

Thanks.

Hi  @Anonymous ,

Usage Metrics cannot obtain access information for embedded dashboards and reports, can only get some access information from users through power bi service, such as discovering who is using these reports in the entire organization, and how they use these reports.

There is a restriction in the official documentation:

You can find more information about Usage Metrics in the link below:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/collaborate-share/service-usage-metrics#frequently-asked-questions

I suggest you use the new version of Usage Metrics, the information in it will be more detailed and accurate:
