If you want to know which reports a dataset is used in, you can directly click on the dataset to see all related reports.
Like this:
In addition, if you are an administrator, then you can also view the user's activity in powerbi in the audit log.
Like this:

If you connect powerbi dataset in powerbi desktop to create a report and publish it to service, you can still use the 'view usage metrics report' function.

Monitor usage metrics in the new workspace experience (preview) - Power BI | Microsoft Docs
Hi Janey,
Correct, but the user would use the dataset only. Can we track the DATASET instead of the report? they would make a live connection to the shared dataset and I would like to know if we can track which user uses a particular shared dataset?
