Provide analysis of how our Power BI dashboards/reports are being used:
Hit count, Q&A queries ran, filters applied, common actions etc.
This would allow us to track the importance and use of our reporting and see how different users interact with the data.

RE: Power BI usage statistics
Hi there,
Have you considered a third party analytics solution for your SharePoint portal? A solution like CardioLog Analytics drills down deep to provide much deeper insights than those available in SharePoint or Google analytics.It’s available as an On-Prem or SaaS deployment. The solution is specifically built for SharePoint, so it’s tailored to provide analytics specifically on SharePoint’s architecture. If you’re looking for more information regarding your portal visitors, navigation paths, search behaviors, and content performance check out http://www.intlock.com
Hope this helps!

RE: Power BI usage statistics
In addition to views of the dashboard I'd like to get an idea of the individual pages and report elements that visitors look at and interact with.
RE: Power BI usage statistics
I agree with some of the prior comments that the dashboard owner should be able to see the usage statistics.
RE: Power BI usage statistics
Are there plans for a PowerBI Admin versus having to have global O365 admin rights?
RE: Power BI usage statistics
This feature is absolutely a "Must-Have".
We need to track usage in order to evangelize the report to management, and gather additional support for feature enhancements that our users are asking for. Management wants to know the usage patterns in order to justify increasing features and scope of our reports.
RE: Power BI usage statistics
This is definitely a must have for me
RE: Power BI usage statistics
This looks like a step in the right direction. Two additional capabilities would be essential for this to be useful to my organization (and from what I have read, others' too). 1- Have ability to use Admin Portal be usable by not just Office365 admins. 2- Metrics for report user consumption stats. Thanks
