referer (referring) URL in usage stats?

Is there anyway to see where report activity came from?

So when I view the usage metrics report, is there way to customize it so I can see where the viewer of the PBI page came from?

 

I'm curious if they are coming from one of our applications, SPO pages, etc.... or even their own bookmarks?

Hi. Sure. Fabric administrators have a special workspace with the logs of all the usage of the tenant. There is a report in there called feature usage. In there you can see who, what activity/operation, when, etc. More info: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/admin/feature-usage-adoption

As an alternative you can use the Power Bi Rest API to get the data (last 30 days only) in order to build your own semantic model with that data. Request info: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/admin/get-activity-events

You can make it easier with a library like simplepbi for python in order to get the data.

I hope that helps,
