Hi Juliana4u ,
Perhaps you can take a look at below article:

- The user has exceeded the amount of embed token that can be generated on a shared capacity. Purchase Azure capacities to generate embed tokens and assign the workspace to that capacity. See Create Power BI Embedded capacity in the Azure portal.
- The Microsoft Entra authorization token expired.
- The authenticated user isn't a member of the group (workspace).
- The authenticated user isn't an admin of the group (workspace).
- The authenticated user doesn't have permissions. Permissions can be updated using the refreshUserPermissions API.
- The authorization header might not be listed correctly. Make sure there are no typos.
