Usage Metrics in SharePoint Embedded Report
- Anonymous8 years ago
Hi Anonymous,
Current Usage matrix not available on embed report/tiles, you can take a look at below document to know the limitation about this feature:
Usage metrics for dashboards and reports
Q: Will usage metrics capture views from embedded dashboards and reports?
A: Usage metrics currently does not support capturing usage for embedded dashboards and reports, including the user owns data flow, the app owns data flow and the publish to web flow. In those cases, we recommend using existing web analytics platforms to track usage for the hosting app or portal.

According to the documentation the usage report should include data from reports embedded in SharePoint, but it does not.
Am I misunderstanding the documentation?
Note
Usage metrics track usage of reports that are embedded in SharePoint Online. However, usage metrics don't track embedding of dashboards and reports via the “user owns credentials” or “app owns credentials” flow. Usage metrics also don't track usage of reports embedding via publish to web.
It looks like this might be a new update, so now the standard usage metrics report tracks usage through sharepoint embedded reports. Thanks for the heads up!
Hi Katie,
Well I think it should log usages on SharePoint, but it does not work.
