We have numerous Azure Analysis Services servers running in the cloud and needed a way to have near-real time monitoring of the queries being run. This KQL query will enable you to pull all the user/query information necessary to manage these servers, into a PowerBI report.
/* The exported Power Query Formula Language (M Language ) can be used with Power Query in Excel and Power BI Desktop. For Power BI Desktop follow the instructions below:
- Download Power BI Desktop from https://powerbi.microsoft.com/desktop/
- In Power BI Desktop select: 'Get Data' -> 'Blank Query'->'Advanced Query Editor'
- Paste the M Language script into the Advanced Query Editor and select 'Done' */

The highlighted section requires you to input your values. In the above example, this will monitor 2 servers. You can add more or split this into individual servers/query.
