Sharepoint document library retrieve view statistics
Hi PierreL69 ,
Sorry for reply late, Based on this similar theread, You may need to use the office 365 management API for usage and retrieve the data on a schedule and store in your own database, you can then use PowerBI to report on top of that. You need to register an Azure AD app and give it permissions to use this API.

Thanks for the solution, but in my case, I think it will not be possible.
I am in a big company, and I have administrator rights only on my SharePoint site (which is already not at top level),
the IT department will never accept to give me admin rights in order to use office 365 management :(

Hi PierreL69 ,
Sorry for that, it is not the effective solution in your scenario. Maybe you could try to ask other releated api in forums about sharepoint.

I reported it to the IT team, we will see if they can manage something.
When you speak about other API won't it be the same result?
=> Have admin rights on 0365 in order to be able to consult the logs?I was hoping that these statistics on the documents consulted (number of consultations and by whom) would be directly available in the library.
But it always seems complicated with Microsoft
