Reset Power BI test version for capacity

Hello,

we are working with a large manufacturer of SoC screens to solve problems with rendering Power BI reports in a third party application (App owns data). To be able to perform a better analysis we would like to share the reports in our Power BI space. We then work with sample reports that do not contain critical information.

 

After not hosting the environment for three years, we wanted to make it available again. However, we are currently failing to retrieve the embed tokens. We are only getting a 403 Forbidden and I believe this is due to the lack of capacity that is now required.

 

Since we do not use Power BI for data analysis in our company, I would like to activate a test capacity. This is currently not or no longer available for me. I do have a single-user premium licence, but that doesn't seem to be enough.

 

Unfortunately, I have not found any other contact point, so I am trying the community.

 

Thank you for your feedback.

Are you sure that the Fabric trial has been enabled?

If yes, the easiest way to activate it again, it is to create another account in your Microft Entra and then enable Fabric

Hi @Cookistador ,

 

thank you for the quick reply. My 60-day trial version is no longer available. I know I could activate it via my menu. That's why I'm asking for reactivation.

I was hoping I could reactivate the trial on my account, but OK I'll discuss it with our admins and see if it's an option internally to run it that way.

I'll get back to you and let you know whether it's OK as a solution or not. Thank you in advance!

Hello @Anonymous ,
no, the problem has not yet been solved. In dialogue with our admin team, another idea has come up that we want to pursue. Due to process and resources this may take some time. I'll let you know when it has worked out and report what we have done so that it is of help to the community. Thank you.

Hello @Anonymous,

hello @Cookistador,

 

finally, we created a new account and activated the Fabric test licence for it. This also allowed me to use Power BI Embedded in our app.

 

Thank you for your good and fast support!

Hi @MaLoFromDim 

 

The capacity is not existing any more in Power BI

They replaced it by Fabric, so you have to enable a fabric trial and you will have 60 days for a trial
