changing workspace to premium capacity

[nickspizza]

I did a lot of work in a workspace in Power BI Pro, but now I have upgraded to Premium Per User and my report still gives me the "upgrade to premium" notification. So I went to the workspace in Power BI Admin Portal and when I click on the workspace and then on capacity and then switch Premium capacity on, then it says I must choose the type of premium capacity from an empty list and it doesn't allow me to proceed. When I go to the Premium Per User options on the left, then they all seem to work, but when I click on the Capacity options on the left, then it tells me that I still need to buy Premium. Mixed signals are throwing me off. I have assigned Premium to myself in the 365 admin portal.

Hi @@nickspizza 

Power BI premium per user  is not the same as Power BI Premium.According to the description in the official article，

Users must have a Premium Per User (PPU) license to access content in a Premium Per User (PPU) workspace or app,but people for free could access  content in Power BI premium workspace.

And If you want to know about how to assign the exist workspace to Premium capacity, please refer to Managing Premium capacities article:

Workspaces can be assigned to a Premium capacity in the Power BI Admin portal or, for a workspace, in the Workspace pane.

A workspace can be added to a Premium capacity by using the Workspace pane providing the user is both a workspace admin and has assignment permissions.

Wish it is helpful for you!

Best Regards
