How to get Power BI Embedded Capacity ID
I was able to get the capacity. I had to set my Service Principal as a Capacity Admin as described in the screenshot here, https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/How-to-apply-Power-BI-Embedded-capacity-to-workspace/m-p/473924.
I was then able to get the capacity ID via API call, and assign the capacity to my workspace via API call. However, I am still unable to see my capacity in the Power BI Admin Portal...
EDIT: I am now able to see the capacity in Power BI Admin Portal after adding myself as a Capacity Admin.
Hi Log4TurtleShell ,
You can find the capacity ID in the URL of the capacity management page. In the Power BI service, go to Settings > Admin portal > Capacity settings, then select a Gen2 capacity. The capacity ID is shown in the URL after /capacities/. For example, 9B77CC50-E537-40E4-99B9-2B356347E584 is the capacity ID in this URL: https://app.powerbi.com/admin-portal/capacities/9B77CC50-E537-40E4-99B9-2B356347E584.

Thanks for the reply!
When I go to Capactiy settings there are no capacities listed. Don't I have to assign the capacity to the workspace first?
