hi Greg_Deckler , thanks for the response

I have donwloaded this in my virtual machine and the problem is when i tried to isntall and put the license. I have an Azure virtual machine with SQL server Enterprise but when i put the license key of enterprise in the pwoerbi report server, it doesnt run.

I have read on internet, that it is necessary de SQL sever enterprise + SA, but i dont find anything how to have SA in a VM or how to install or if it is possible or what i can do instead of move to PowerBI premium

Hmm, I would think that an Azure SQL VM would have SA technically if you didn't use BYOL. You might have to get ahold of Microsoft licensing and get it hammered out.
