Tenant settings audit

Every Power BI and Fabric admin setting in the tenant — export policies, sharing policies, developer settings, and more — in one searchable view, without opening the admin portal.

What you get

Settings tab — every tenant-level Power BI and Fabric admin setting with group, enabled status, and search

Every tenant-level Power BI and Fabric admin setting pulled from the admin API — export policies, sharing policies, developer settings, capacity assignments, embed settings, and more. This gives you a snapshot of how the tenant is configured without opening the admin portal.

For each setting you see:

  • Setting name — the name as it appears in the admin portal
  • Group — the category the setting belongs to (e.g. Export and sharing, Developer, Admin API)
  • Enabled — whether the setting is enabled or disabled
  • Allowed security groups — which groups are granted or excluded

Run the analysis

  1. Run a tenant-wide scan with a Fabric Admin account — the Settings tab populates automatically after Phase 1.
  2. Switch to the Settings tab.
  3. Use the search bar to find specific settings by name or group.

Common workflows

  • Compliance audit. Search for settings related to export, sharing, or external access. Verify that sensitive data controls match your organization’s policies — e.g. that “Export to Excel” or “Publish to web” is restricted to the right groups.
  • Pre-migration snapshot. Before migrating to Fabric or changing tenant policies, export the current settings as a baseline. Compare after the migration to confirm nothing changed unexpectedly.
  • Onboarding a new admin. Hand a colleague the .measurekiller file — they can browse every tenant setting without admin portal access, making it easier to understand how the tenant is configured.
  • Track changes over time. Run periodic scans and compare the Settings export to catch unintended policy changes — especially in multi-admin environments where settings may be changed without coordination.

What to do with the findings

  • Export to Excel — click Export in the toolbar to export the full settings inventory to Excel for compliance reviews or configuration baselines.
  • Export as JSON — paid editions can also export as raw JSON for integration with compliance tools or configuration management systems.
  • Share the .measurekiller file — hand the scan to a security or compliance team member who can review settings without needing admin access themselves.
