Fabric metrics app / monitor CU usage

Hi Bendik 

When you install the Fabric Capacity Metrics App, it will automatically create a Pro workspace for you and install the related Power BI report and semantic model into this workspace. The Fabric Capacity Metrics App itself is a Power BI template app, which is a Power BI feature, so you need a license that allows you to use Power BI features.

Therefore, you need at least a Pro license. If you don't have that, you can apply for a personal trial license, which will also allow you to use all Power BI features within 60 days. Once you have installed the app, you can move the related workspace to Fabric (F64 or above) or Fabric Trial capacity. 

From a cost-saving perspective, if you want to use this app to monitor Fabric capacity usage, I recommend obtaining a Pro license for the Fabric capacity administrator. This is because only the capacity administrator can connect this app to the capacity they manage. Additionally, keep the workspace in the Pro capacity and do not move it to the paid Fabric capacity.

Reference: Per user licenses

Otherwise, we can look forward to new features that might offer new options and experiences.
