It would be very useful to have an admin overview to see which visuals are used in reports across your organization. Especially for custom visuals to see if these visuals are certified, uncertified or organizational allowed visuals.

These insights can be used from an admin perspective to analyze the impact before disabling custom visuals on tenant level.

Thanks for your comments.
What data do you think is a must for you as admin in this report?
What is the time-span required? will 30 days be sufficient?

The ability to turn on the tenant setting: "use certified visuals only" is dependent on this functionality.

This is will provide awesome insights and helps to spread the adoption of certain visuals and will help to provide best practices how visuals can be used if why visuals should not be used. It also helps to inform users if issues with some visuals arise.

This could also be very useful if performance or security issues are identified with a specific visual and you want to track down all the places where it is used.
