Usage metrics dataset

[Omega]

Hi All,

I'm trying to edit the usage metrics generated in PBI by adding the number of views by country and department. Unfortunately, I don't have these information in the report. 

Any ideas of how I can get usage metrics by department and country?

@Omega,

Usage metrics dataset doesn't contain department and country metrics, please review this official article to get information about what metrics are generated in Usage metrics.

Meanwhile, you can submit an idea about this issue in the following forum.

@v-yuezhe-msft: Is there a way to connect to the data in the usage metrics report using PBI desktop? In the usage metrics report, when I choose Analyze in Excel, a pivot table is created which is connect to the data. 

Please advise. 

Thanks!
