How do you fellow admins track report and data model performance?
I am administering a power bi service and I am always asked how some of the reports are running slow. I make some adjustments and it seems that reports are performing better. How can I be sure that my adjustments are giving the desired result?
So, I need to track and monitor reports and data set performance -how fast they load up (both import and direct query). But where I can find this information? Is this possible in worksheet level? I already have O365 audit logs but that does not include any performance information. Currently I am trying to read information from PBI API but I have not found information that I need.
Any advice?
Hi @tondeli ,
You could download the pbix file and use Performance Analyzer.
Or you could come up a new idea here to improve Power BI and make this feature coming sooner.
My "problem" is that in our company we have several PBI developers and I can not track every report by myself. Luckily we have clear development guide that includes documentation template and a report based on Performance Analyzer. We also review every solution and accept them to be moved to production.
My goal is to find reports that are used often and are performing poorly. Reports with high usage and low performance will need attention and future development.
I can track following report performance indicators with audit logs and gateway logs
As per @v-eachen-msft , I assume that you really can not track load times.
I am also a Tableau admin and we are able to track all these and more with LogShark (both server and online version). Does anyone know if there are 3rd party software to make this happen?
