Report usage metrics
Dear community members, I would like to "pick your brain" on the topic of "Power BI reports usage", the scenario is as follow, we just receive a mandate to understand and document how reports are use...
Hi svenchio,
The way that I do this is using the GetActivityEvents API endpoint. Admin - Get Activity Events - REST API (Power BI Power BI REST APIs) | Microsoft Learn
I pull data from this daily and store it in a lakehouse. The API only maintains 30 days of data, so storing it allows me to capture more trends.
This data will tell you about almost every action taken in Fabric, including who is viewing reports and when.
Once you have the data, it is quite simple to build some reporting on it to identify highly used and unused reports.
Do Views of a pinned visual count as Views in the Usage Metrics for the source Report?
