    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Power BI embedded analytics requires a capacity (A, EM, P, or F SKU) to publish embedded Power BI content. The capacity ensures that the embedded content performs reliably and consistently.

    Reference: Capacity and SKUs in Power BI embedded analytics - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

     

    Regarding your specific question about Pro and Premium per-user licenses:

    Power BI Pro and Premium per-user (PPU) licenses do not come with reserved capacity. These licenses allow users to create, share, and consume content, but they do not provide the dedicated resources that a capacity subscription offers.


    To remove the "free trial" banner from embedded content, you need to purchase a capacity (A, EM, P, or F SKU)4.
    It seems that assigning your workspace the "Premium per-user" license resolved the issue temporarily, but for consistent performance and to avoid the trial banner, a dedicated capacity is required.

    The following table provides a summary of features, the capacity they require, and the specific SKU that is needed for each one.

    Hope those can help you.
