P1/F64 or greater capacity is required for Co-pilot. Pro licence is not related, you will need Pro licence to publish reports.

Hi Balasri To access Copilot in the Power BI service, you need to have the Fabric capacity (F64 or higher) or Premium capacity.Please Check this Documentation for more details https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/copilot-introduction
Hi Akash
the workspace is already in premium capacity but user is receiving the error in Power BI desktop.
If I open any report inside this workspace, I can access Co-Pilot option, But cannot connect to Copilot from my desktop(not getting dropdown option in PBI desktop. When I click on Co-Pilot there)

Balasri Could you check if there is any restrictions on co pilot to be used in PBI Desktop in your organisation and you have appropriate role admin contributor also keep the latest PBI Desktop installed The capacity should be in Fabric F64 or higher and PBI Premium capacity

Hi Balasri,
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum. Thank you Deku, Akash_Varuna, for your inputs on this issue.
After reviewing the details you provided, I have identified few workarounds that may help resolve the issue. Please follow these steps:To use Power BI Copilot, a Microsoft Fabric license by itself is not sufficient. Access to Copilot requires:
- A paid Fabric capacity (F64 or higher) or a Power BI Premium capacity (P1 or higher).
- Copilot must also be enabled by your tenant administrator within the Microsoft Fabric admin settings.
Please note that Power BI Pro licenses do not provide access to Copilot features on their own, and trial SKUs are not supported.
Kindly refer to the below link for better understanding:
Enable Fabric Copilot for Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
Fabric region availability - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn
