Originally posted by Microsoft Jan 22, 2021 SharePoint Online 0 Comments

We are making some updates to the SharePoint usage report within the Microsoft 365 admin center.

In phase one, we are adding eight new metrics to the SharePoint usage report.
In phase two, we are incorporating two of these new metrics – anonymous link count and company link count – into the definitions for active sites and active files. Thus the number of active sites and active files recorded in the usage report may change. We will also backfill the report with 180 days of data.
