Monitor with the CoE Power BI dashboard

With the Monitor section of the Center of Excellence (CoE) Power BI dashboard, you can query basic inventory (environments, apps, flows, makers, connectors, and audit logs) to monitor usage across your entire tenant and within each environment. These reports also support drill-downs and filtering, for example by maker department/country/city, connector usage, or premium feature usage.
