✅ What You’ll Do

Go to: security.microsoft.com
- On the left pane, scroll down and click Audit.
- Ensure you have appropriate Compliance roles (e.g., Audit Reader). If not, contact your IT admin.
In Activities > Friendly Names, select:
Copilot Activities – Interacted with Copilot
Set a Date Range (recommended: 3–6 months).
Give your search a name and click Search.
- Once the status changes to Completed, click into it.
Select Export > Download all results.

This will download a .csv file containing an AuditData JSON column.

Go to: admin.microsoft.com
- Log in as a Microsoft 365 Global Administrator.
Navigate to Reports > Usage.
Select the Microsoft 365 Copilot tab.
On the Readiness tab, select:
Has Copilot license assigned
Select only these columns:
- Username, Display name, Email
Click the ellipsis (...) and choose Export to download the file as .csv.

Download the provided Power BI report template (.PBIT).
Open the .pbit file in Power BI Desktop.
When prompted, paste in the full file paths for the two CSVs you downloaded:
- Copilot_Activities.csv
- Copilot_Licensed_Users.csv

This will connect the template to your data and begin processing.

The AuditData column contains nested JSON. Power BI will automatically flatten this using the provided report template.
Ensure the audit log date range is wide enough (3–6 months) to capture meaningful usage data.
Use email address as the key when merging datasets in Power BI.
When prompted in Power BI, paste the full file paths for both CSVs:
- Copilot_Activities.csv
- Copilot_Licensed_Users.csv
