Audit and usage tenant settings

  • Article

These settings are configured in the tenant settings section of the Admin portal. For information about how to get to and use tenant settings, see About tenant settings.

Usage metrics for content creators

When this setting is on, users in the organization can see usage metrics for dashboards, reports, and semantic models for which they have appropriate permissions.

To learn more, see Monitor usage metrics in the workspaces.

Per-user data in usage metrics for content creators

Per-user data is enabled for usage metrics by default. Content creator account information, such as user name and email address, is included in the metrics report. If you don't wish to gather this information for all users, you can disable the feature for specified security groups or for an entire organization. Account information for the excluded users then shows in the report as Unnamed.

To learn more, see Exclude user information from usage metrics reports.

Azure Log Analytics connections for workspace administrators

Power BI integration with Azure Log Analytics enables Fabric administrators and Premium workspace owners to connect their Premium workspaces to Azure Log Analytics to monitor the connected workspaces.

When the switch is on, administrators and Premium workspace owners can configure Azure Log Analytics for Power BI.

Microsoft can store query text to aid in support investigation

When this setting is enabled, Microsoft can store the query text generated when users use Fabric items such as reports and dashboards. This data is sometimes necessary for debugging and resolving complex issues related to the performance and functionality of Fabric Items such as semantic models. The setting is enabled by default.

Storing and retaining query text data can have implications for data security and privacy. While it is recommended to leave the setting on to facilitate support, if there are organizational requirements that don't permit storing query text, or if you wish to opt out of this feature for any other reason, you can turn off the feature as follows:

  1. Go to the tenant settings tab in the admin portal.
  2. Find the setting Microsoft can store query text to aid in support investigation. It is in the Audit and usage section. You can use the search box on the tenant settings tab to help find it.
  3. Set the toggle to Disabled.

For more information about the diagnostic query text storage feature, see Diagnostic query text storage.
