Hi there,

Our org uses Azure and PBI. I got the fabric trial version and im the fabric admin. I'm able to see tentant settings,etc. I enabled data agent, all copilot AI options. Still not able to create data agent. What other options do i need to enable to try. I have a lake house which has data.

Can't create data agents in this workspace: An admin needs to change the SKU type for your organization's Fabric capacity.

All the below are enabled.

Hi AJAJ, unfortunately Fabric Data Agents are not supported on trial capacities.

Please check the prerequisites for creating data agents. A solution would be to create a Fabric Capacity F2 resource in Azure and connect it to the workspace, to be able to create a data agent.

Hope this helps. If so, please give a Kudos 👍 and mark as Accepted Solution ✔️.

Hi AJAJ,

As nielsvdc mentioned, this isn't supported on trial cpacities. It also isn't supported on the legacy P SKU Premium capacities, You need an F2 or higher Fabric capacity.

If you want to play with this, a pay as you go F2 capacity will work, however be mindful that data agents uses a fair amount of CUs so if you want to do a lot with it, you will likely need a higher capacity.

If you found this helpful, consider giving some Kudos. If I answered your question or solved your problem, mark this post as the solution.
