How to get the login account for SIGNING UP FOR POWER BI

[Sumita]

Hello,

In order to do labs of "Analyzing and Visualizing Data with Power BI", i need an account for SIGNING UP FOR POWER BI. How do I get this account to log-in as I am unable to login in POWER BI Desktop.

Thanks for your kind help.

Best Regards,

Sumita

Please follow the video provided by ankitpatira. Power BI requires that you use a work, or school, email address to sign up. Power BI does not support email addresses provided by consumer email services or telecommunication providers. This includes outlook.com, hotmail.com, gmail.com and others.

If you try to sign up with a personal email address, you will get a message indicating to use a work or school email address.

Best Regards,

You need to go out to powerbi.com and sign-up for an account.

Hello,

Thanks but as stated before, even at "powerbi.com", when i sign-up, there also it asks me for:"Enter your work email address". The issue is my gmail account does not work here, so how should i get a work email address that it can accept.
