The currently released usage metrics feature only keeps data for 90 days. Please increase the data retention period.
FYI: the documentation for the usage metrics feature can be found here: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-service-usage-metrics/

RE: Maintain dashboard/report usage metrics data for >90 days
At the very least, we would like to see year over year usage metrics. We are a large organization, 90 days doesn't tell us much.
RE: Maintain dashboard/report usage metrics data for >90 days
Any update on this? 90 days is way too low for any useful analytics to be produced
RE: Maintain dashboard/report usage metrics data for >90 days
What happens when we need to see year over year. Or a rolling six months? We are looking for a higher adoption rate. The only way to tell if we are achieving this, is by know usage metrics for longer than 90 days.
RE: Maintain dashboard/report usage metrics data for >90 days
Agree. "Keep Forever" option if made available will help me do many cool stuffs with the usage metric. 90 days data don't give much insight
RE: Maintain dashboard/report usage metrics data for >90 days
Agree, this is needed. 18-24 months
Any idea of the latest status, as this post started a half a year ago?
RE: Maintain dashboard/report usage metrics data for >90 days
This would have a lot of value.
Also - some organisations have an audit requirement to maintain long term visibility of who has accessed what. eg Healthcare or Finance.
So being able to simply turn on "Keep forever" would be a useful setting to add.
RE: Maintain dashboard/report usage metrics data for >90 days
This would be really awesome. We are doing some cool things with the usage reports to drive adoption but we would like to show and analyze longer periods of time.
RE: Maintain dashboard/report usage metrics data for >90 days
Agree with others, we need at least a year, more if you want to do year-on-year comparisons on adoption
RE: Maintain dashboard/report usage metrics data for >90 days
90 days is nothing.... I am thinking we will need a minimum of 18-24 months (need a minimum of just over a year).
RE: Maintain dashboard/report usage metrics data for >90 days
it is impossible to make a decent analysis for a dataset of only 90 days. Some of our reports are only used each quarter. How can we compare the usage of all quarters?
