user usage metrics

I have the impression that the settings in our administrative portal are correct for showing use metrics.

For 'old' dashboards I'v already used the usage metrics, but at this moment i can't see the user usage. How can I update this report (or recreate it).

Even for 'new' (test-) dahsboards i've created yesterday (after reading the article about user usage metrics), the user usage metrics doesn't show up.

Is there a specific setting for the user usage metric?

 

Kind regards for any information about this topic

Ah, that feature. They just released that. My guess is that the feature just hasn't been rolled out to your tenant. See this first bullet in the "Next Steps"

 

  • Try out the feature! To get started, head to the Power BI service and go to any pre-built usage metrics report. Note that we’re still rolling out the feature worldwide, so you may have to wait until the end of the week to see it in action

The setting in the admin portal seems to be correct. I can get usage metrics like views per day, shares per day, rank, ...

 

The problem is that 'views per user' doesn't appear. In the documentation https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-service-usage-metrics/, you can see it in the right bottom corner.

It doesn't appear in old, neither in brand new dashboards/reports.

 

Thanks in advance for any tip!

In the Admin Portal, click on Tenant Settings and then scroll down and expand "Audit and usage settings" then make sure you enable the "Usage metrics for content creators".
