Custom dashboard with Capacity metrics apps data

[RohanSen]

Hi Gurus,

I would like to know if we can create a custom app using the data from capacity metrics app. 

1. Can we connect with the capacity metrics app data via XMLA and get the data

2. OR can we use REST API's to get the data and create a custom report on top of it.

3. Another option can we edit the existing Capacity metrics report as per as our requirements as in changing the layout, adding few more metrics , Using RAG indicators.

Basically the end goal is the customer would like to have a custom report/dashboard with similiar metrics as Power BI Premium Capacity Metrics app but would like to add more additional KPI's and in a different layout than the current App.

Thanks

Hi @v-rzhou-msft ,

Thanks for the updates!

I am looking to create a custom capacity monitor report for Premium Capacity.

Basically the client wants a similiar report/app like Power BI Premium Capacity Metrics App but with customized layout and few more FLAGS/Alerts.

Hence wanted to check here if there is any way possible to extract the data out of the Capacity Metrics App and create one by myself. Can it be done through Power Bi REST API's ?

Thanks

Rohan

Hi @RohanSen 

Could you tell me, in what kind of capacity do you want to export metric data and create custom metric reports for, Shared Capacity or Premium Capacity?

Currently, Power BI doesn't support us to get capacity metrics for Shared Capacity, we can monitor Premium capacity by  Monitoring in the Power BI Admin portal or Monitoring with the Power BI Premium Capacity Metrics app , but we couldn't export capacity metrics data and create a custom monitor report by ourselves.
