Fabric Developer Mode not visible - Workload Development Kit setup
Hi, I'm trying to setup a local workloads dev kit so I can do a PoC on it using this guide Set up your Microsoft Fabric development environment - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn. I have created a microsoft fabric resource on azure portal with the required capacity and am the capacity admin for it, but I am still not able to see multiple tabs in the admin portal.
If someone has completed the workload dev kit setup, could you please share the steps for setup?
P.S. I created the resource in my Org's subscription, what is the tenant wrt Fabric, is it azure subscription tenant or fabric capacity, or something else?
Yes, the Power BI Service (or now the Fabric service) is administered at the Tenant Level by a Power BI Admin (Fabric Admin), Global Admin or Power Platform admin. A capacity admin is one step below the Tentant Admin. The Admin Portal / Tenant Settings cannot be change/administered by a capacity admin.
A tenant can have multiple capacities (Premium, Share (pro/ppu), Fabric Trial and Fabric). This level admin helps releave the 'Tenant' Admin from having to administer all the tenant and capacity settings.

I have Fabric capacity and i am the capacity admin for it, but still don't see the tabs as you see in the image shared
This first picture is of a user with no Capacity Admin role/permissions. The next one is after I add that person as a Capacity Admin
You wil not see the Power BI Admin options on the left, but you will see the capacity and a settings button to make changes to capacity. If you do not see the Fabric Capacity optins with a capacity, they did not add you as a Capacity Admin
I see the fabric capacity, as below, and i am a capacity admin but could you let me know how may I enable fabric developer mode to start working on workloads development kit and develop a PoC for an existing service, or for now, as a starting point, run the sample workload provided in the documentation
It's the one i've posted in the question
I don't see the Fabric developer mode switch, thanks for clearing this, I'll find out who the powerbi admin is, in my team.
Just another question: as i have created this fabric capacity through azure portal by myself, I'm not sure if anyone in my direct team has powerbi admin access, Are you referring to the docs which state Global Admin, Powerbi admin, etc can enable this?
