Cannot access a Power BI Premium workspace using a Power BI Free license
Hi,
My organization has a Premium Capacity. So not Premium Per User (PPU), but actual Premium Capacity. When I try to access a workspace which is visible to the left (notice how the absence of a small person-icon shows it is not PPU but Premium Capacity),
I get the following message:
From https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/consumer/end-user-features, where it is mentioned that
I would conclude that my Free account,
would be able to access this workspace. Why is Power BI prompting me to get Power BI Pro then?
Kind regards,
Stijn Verhoeven

I think you need to check the role that is been assigned to you in workspace - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/consumer/end-user-features#workspaces-and-roles

What role have you been assigned in the workspace?
I have found that users with free licenses can only access the workspace if they have the Viewer role (and nothing higher). I'm pretty sure that's specified
