SQL Database Auditing

Hi,

I setup the SQL Database Auditing in PowerBI to pull all SQL Audit data and waited for couple hours and nothing is showing in the dashboards.  Dont know if i am doing anything wrong? How to troubleshoot any data refresh issue?

How did you setup and pull audit logs to power bi ? Can you please share more detailed information about this?

If you can't direct pull data for database, I'd like to suggest you use below t-sql query to create new table with audit logs, then get data from custom table.

SELECT * FROM sys.fn_get_audit_file ('\\serverName\Audit\HIPPA_AUDIT.sqlaudit',default,default);go

Reference:
sys.fn_get_audit_file (Transact-SQL)

There is a SQL Database Auditing PowerBI app service available in Power BI Service.

HI @alakiran,

Based on research, it seems like you need to do some extra settings to turn on auditing logging.

I'd like to suggest you to take a look at below article to know to configuration azure sql auditing:
