View Specific Users Overloading Capacity

There was briefly a time where Capacity Metrics would reveal user's email address and the utilization related to them.

 

Are there any options now to view that data?  There are cases where if I can indentify the user and talk to them, I can either show them a better way to utilize a Dataset or revisit my Dataset's effeciencies.

 

I've tried using DAX Studio to look a current Sessions, but it's difficult to understand and I think once the Session is over, the data is gone

 

SELECT
FROM $System.Discover_Sessions
ORDER BY SESSION_START_TIME DESC

Hi @cassidy 

You can build Power bi report using Powershell and REST APIs of Power BI to keep controling logs and audit the service over time.

@aj1973  Have you come across a blog post or resource that demonstrates steps for this purpose? 

I've only used the API triggering refreshes for the most part.

For sure there are many blogs on how to use API and for what. I replied to many of them you can check them out. I myself built some audit logs reports. Not hard to do but it's a bit long process

Sorry @aj1973 , I should of been more specific.  Do you have a link to a blog that covers building a report that monitors usage of individual users?

No I don't. You can type a keyword/phrase in the search bar to find what you need.
