Granting external user access to a workspace

[rrhascall]

Hi all,

Having an issue with granting an external user access to a workspace.

I've set up the user in Azure AD as a Guest.

I've enabled "Allow Azure Active Directory guest users to edit and manage content" via the Power BI Admin Portal.

I've sent an invite to the guest user.

We have Power BI Pro license.  External users also has Power BI Pro license.

When I try to add the guest user as a member or contributor to the workspace, I'm getting the following error:

Any thoughts on why I'm not able to add the guest external user to the workspace?  

Do they need to accept the invite first?  Is there a way I can accept the invite for them or confirm them another way?

Hi  @rrhascall ,

I checked past threads on this issue and this is usually a temporary error, a few hours have passed since you posted, does this issue still exist?
