Report Office 365 settings with Power BI

Question

Can I use Power BI to report on the Office 365 system, including all apps, settings? I would like to build (and eventually schedule) a report showing all information that is visible on the admin pages. Is this possible?

Answer 1

Power BI (currently) does not have a connector for Office 365 system settings, and it does not make much sense to build one, since Power BI is about aggregating large data sets. What would a report like that look like? Setting A is on, Setting B is off, Setting C is set to "text"?? That is not what Power BI does.

Power BI does have a connector to the Office 365 usage data. That is a large data set and that is where Power BI shines.
