Monitoring actions taken on a Power BI tenant is an important aspect of governance, security, and performance optimization at the organizational level. The best approach to this monitoring is to utilize the Power BI Admin Portal, Audit Logs in Microsoft 365 and Activity Log APIs. Together these tools provide tenant administrators with information on user actions, dataset refreshings, report and dashboard sharing activities, workspace changes, etc. This all helps administrators to see how the content is being utilized, by whom and at what time. The more information administrators can gather, the better able they are to manage typical usage patterns, licensing and risks in their organization.

As part of the structured Power BI Course in Pune, learners will learn about tenant-level monitoring tools and the practical application of tenant monitoring. Learners will focus initially on using audit logs and how to apply filters for actionable insights related to user engagement and report performance.

During the hands-on aspect of the Power BI Classes in Pune, students will have an opportunity to work with real datasets taken from audit logs, and will create internal dashboards that track tenant activity, highlight trends or anomalies, and track adoption metrics.

The Advanced Power BI Training will take a deeper view of the potential to automate monitoring using REST APIs, linking Power BI activities with SIEM tools, and setting up alerts for suspicious activity or performance - things that feed into usability insights that allow organizations to expand their use of Power BI while still retaining control.
