Granularity for M365 Usage Analytics data

[sicalandmt1]

We connected Power BI desktop to the M365 Usage Analytics.

We'd like to display daily totals over the past 30 days for two items in particular: MBX_StorageUsed and MBX_TotalItems

The monthly totals show up fine in the bar graph. When I add the day field into Date Hierarchy, the visualization does not show daily totals. I was expecting to see a bar graph for every day of the month.

How can I determine if the dataset contains daily totals for these two counters?

How can I modify the visualization to show daily totals over the past 30 days instead of a monthly total?

I searched the forum and found this message (https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/how-to-build-M365-usage-reports-with-our-Office-365-data/m-...) however I did not see steps to modify the visualization.

The link provided in the message (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/usage-analytics/customize-reports?view=o365-wor...) shows basic steps to create a new visualization.

Thank you

Hi @sicalandmt1 ,

Do you want to show the daily total like the screenshot below?

If you want to show the past 30 days, you can refer the following steps.

1. Create a measure like this,

Measure = 
var _past30 = CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Date]),ALLSELECTED('Table'))-30
return
CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[value]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Date]>=_past30))

2. Then we can create a bar chart to get the result.

If it doesn’t meet your requirement, could you please provide a mockup sample based on fake data?

It will be helpful if you can show us the exact expected result based on the tables.
