Power BI
Under ReviewBetter Auditing of User Activity (Datasets, Reports, Dashboards, Exports)

ALL user activities in Power BI should be logged for auditing purposes, including datasets accessed, reports/dashboards accessed, and especially data exports performed. The audit data should be accessible as a dataset to build reports against as well as easily exportable / downloadable.

We released a US only preview for auditing Power BI. Read more about it here: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-admin-auditing/

This is good, but not great. If you're not exposing who created the gateway but allow anyone to create/install a gateway, you're still not addressing a governance question.
RE: Better Auditing of User Activity (Datasets, Reports, Dashboards, Exports)
Is there a timeline on when this feature will be available in other regions (e.g. Europe)? Our internal Governance folks are very keen on this feature!
RE: Better Auditing of User Activity (Datasets, Reports, Dashboards, Exports)
Please explain why the auditing feature is available for US only - don't hope you guys keep making these differences..

Hi, is there any timeline for deploying Asia Region tenant, we are getting many requests from users wanting to see the adoption of their dashboard.
RE: Better Auditing of User Activity (Datasets, Reports, Dashboards, Exports)
Do we have an update on this, I'd really like to be able to see how many times dashboards/reports are being accessed
RE: Better Auditing of User Activity (Datasets, Reports, Dashboards, Exports)
Hope that much more is coming beyond features for admins. Every user needs to know exactly who viewed their Power BI content--like LinkedIn where users can know the names of people that viewed their profile.
RE: Better Auditing of User Activity (Datasets, Reports, Dashboards, Exports)
Do we have a release date for rest of the world. Even if it is in preview, we would like to evaluate it for user adoption.

Hi Ajay,
We have a lot of customers requesting auditing capabilities for governance and usage purposes. Is this stil a US only capability and when will this be generally available?

RE: Better Auditing of User Activity (Datasets, Reports, Dashboards, Exports)
This feature is vital for our use case. We're in the process of migrating users to PowerBI from a legacy system and are unable to efficiently track who looks at what reports. The biggest issue here is that unlike our legacy system PowerBI does not provide a way to bring usage data back into a database for custom usage analysis.

Report/dashboard owners also need report-level statistics.
