I need to see the names of the people who watch my video on SharePoint.

Question

I do NOT need to see how many people visited my page. I do NOT need to see the COUNT of unique viewers. What I DO NEED is when someone watches my video, to see who it was SPECIFICALLY BY NAME. As a company we track, for compliance reasons, who watches our training videos. I am a site owner and I dont want other employees to be able to see who has viewed the video. (Activating the SharePoint Viewers in site settings is not the answer. This allows everyone to see whos viewed it and I need it for only me as the compliance director.) I am using SharePoint Modern Online and using a Stream video to do the trainings. Ive seen a lot of these posts out there and every answer from a microsoft employee is anything but the answer to the question asked. Hopefully my question is clear and I can get an answer. Thank you in advance

You could use audit logs to check who and when view the video.

1.You should have one of following admin role to use audit logs.

2.Sign into the Microsoft Purview compliance portal -> Select the Audit tab on the left panel of the homepage to navigate to the Audit tool -> Select New Search tab at the top of the Audit page -> Set Data and time range -> Choose Accessed file in the actives -> Enter file URL in the File, folder, or site -> Then search audit logs.
