Link Dataverse to Microsoft Fabric: Power BI Premium license error

[vivien57]

Hello everyone,

We're trying to test the “Dataverse to Fabric” link but we're getting an error that we don't understand.

The error tells us that the user needs a Power BI Premium license -> This is the case, he has a Premium per User license. What's more, we've even activated Trial Fabric for this user.

In addition, we have created a workspace with the capability of this user

Do you have an idea?

Thank you in advance for your help,

Have a nice day

I just noticed that the Dataverse seems to be on the Azure “West Europe” region whereas as seen in my previous post, the Fabric capacity and Fabric tenant are in the “North Europe” region.

Are North Europe and West Europe both in the Europe region considered the same Azure region (as Europe) or two different regions (West and North)?

Thanks in advance for your help

Hi @vivien57 
Thanks for using Fabric Community.
North Europe and West Europe are two different Azure regions within the same Europe geography. While they are both located in Europe, they are distinct data centers with separate infrastructure.

As per the prerequisites mentioned below, this might be the reason for the error.

Hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any further questions. 
Have a great day.

Hello,

Thank you very much for your feedback.

The little note in purple is not visible on the French page. If I understand correctly, after 30 April, we will no longer need the Dataverse and the Fabric capacity to be in the same Azure region and so we will no longer have the error, is that correct?

Thank you in advance for your return,

Have a nice day,

Vivien

Hi @vivien57 

Yes you are right. After April 30, 2024 you dont need to have the accounts in same region. This feature is yet to be deployed. 

Glad that I could help you. Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Have a good day and All the best.
