    Hi lovishsood1 

     

    There is no fixed "maximum user limit" for Power BI Embedded A1 capacity. This is the crucial point that often causes confusion.

    Instead, the A1 capacity provides a certain amount of computational power (1 vCore and typically 3 GB of RAM for the dataset in memory). The number of users it can support concurrently and effectively depends entirely on:

    • Report Complexity:
      • Number of visuals on a page.
      • Complexity of DAX measures.
      • Number of tables and relationships in your data model.
      • Use of RLS (Row-Level Security), which can add overhead

    My advise would be to Start with A1 for Testing: It's reasonable to start with an A1 for initial testing and development. Power BI Embedded is "pay-as-you-go," so you can easily scale up or down.
