Do I need a Power BI license (pro or otherwise) to view a Power BI report in Fabric F4 workspace?

useruserhi91 — Tue, 04 Feb 2025 18:54:29 GMT

Hi,

I have bought a Fabric F4 capacity through Azure Portal and assigned it to my company's Fabric workspace.

I have published a Power BI report to this F4 Fabric workspace and the accompanying semantic model.

Question: If my colleagues from my company want to see the report (both through Fabric portal or using "embed link for website or portal"), do they need any sort of license (Power BI or otherwise)? Or is the F4 capacity workspace enough?

The Power BI report pulls data from a fabric warehouse in the same workspace. Thanks!

SKUs that are smaller than F64 require a Pro or Premium Per User (PPU) license, or a Power BI individual trial to consume Power BI content.
