Usage metrics dataset get report opens in desktop

[Mlemmers]

Hi,

To keep track of the usage of the reports in service I put the dataset generated by the new usage report in PBI Desktop.

The viewscount in the dataset seems to refer to the report page views (compared it against the new usage report in Desktop). However, I don't see a metric for the report opens, like the report in service gives. 

I'm now kind of stuck on how to get to the unique landings. The documentation doesn't give me a clear answer to how to calculate it in Desktop. Can anyone who has tried to recreate the service usage metrics report in Desktop enlighten me?

P.S. before someone asks: I'm not adding a dataset because of confidental data but anyone with service can download their own usage metrics themselves

Hi @Mlemmers,

Please make sure you are connecting to the “Report Usage Metrics Model” dataset but not Usage Metrics Report. Only with this dataset, you could find the viewscont fields. ViewsCount records the times of the report page viewed by users.

When I drop ReportsCount total into a table it will give me the same number for every DisplayName

@Mlemmers 

That’s because ReportsCount Total is in a separate table and only one tenant id and a count for all the tenant report in this table. But for the entire dataset, it contains data from the same tenanted. Therefore, no granularity can be used to drill through this total.
