Azure Cost Management Data

Hello,

I'm having issues trying to connect to Power BI to the Azure Cost Management data. I'm following all the instructions here:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/desktop-connect-azure-cost-management

I have tried each option, but for each one I get an 'Expression.Error: Access to the resource is forbidden.' message. However, when I install the Azure Cost Management app through the service as mentioned in the below link, and add our Enterprise agreement number, I can see the data.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cost-management-billing/costs/analyze-cost-data-azure-cost-ma...

With this being a template app I can't download the .pbix to see how the connection has been configure differently.

Anyone got any ideas?

Hi @TheCreepster1 ,

Please recheck the agreement type to determine whether you have access to a billing account for a Microsoft Customer Agreement.

Check access to a Microsoft Customer Agreement
