Cannot add 'Power BI Service' in Azure Active Directory to use Power BI API's

Hello Power BI's, According to the Microsoft Power BI Developers documentation https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/dn877542.aspx | Microsoft Azure in New York. I first need to register an app in Azure Active Directory.

However when I follow the steps in the link above, I see none of the Microsoft Applications for me to add, let alone see the Power BI one.

 

Obviously there is something missing, do I need to somehow link my Azure account with an Office 365 account or something ?? Please advice!

 

Thanks

Sarahjohn

Have you signed up a Power BI account? You can register the AAD application with the Power BI account. See Register an Azure AD app to embed Power BI content.
