Help needed regarding Power BI Metrics - Pulling Historical Data

Hello all,

I'm trying to pull in historical data in my scorecard / metric by making a connection to a visual as shown in the picture below.

Power BI Scorecard

The visual I want to connect to:

The visual above is about the percentage of the hours the employer was in a meeting.
The measure for this is as follows: [Total hours in meeting]/[Total registered hours]

When I connect the metric to the visual, it doesn't pull in the historical data.
When I change the input of the visual from Month to Date (Datum), I can pull the historical data.
But this way I don't have the desired visual I want to use. (See picture below)

This visual shows the measure on daily basis.
I need to have this on a monthly basis. 

Is there a way to pull in the data per month into Power BI Metrics?
Is there a way to adjust the measure in such way, it shows [Total hours in meeting]/[Total registered hours] only at the end of each month? 

With kind regards,

LazzaNova

No not the answer I was looking for. Perhaps I should describe my problem more accurately.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

According to your description, what you need to do to use the Power BI Activity Log is to download the log and store it on your own storage to keep a record of historical data over a period of time.


Here are more details on what the Activity Log is and how to download it.

Track user activities in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Docs


If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information and let me know immediately. Looking forward to your reply.


Best Regards,
Henry
