Cannot install any App in Power BI
I'm trying to install different apps in Power BI, but I'm always getting an error. I'm the administrator of my organization and I activated the permission to install apps from outside the AppSource.
Every attempt gives me a similar error. I show below the error I got when tried to install respectvely the GitHub and Microsoft Project apps.

What's going on?
Hi julsal ,
To install a Template App, you have to have a Power BI pro license and the tenant has to have allowed template apps to be installed. Since you stated that multiple apps are not installing, I would suspect that one or both of these requirements are not being met.
I would appreciate Kudos if my response was helpful. I would also appreciate it if you would Mark this As a Solution if it solved the problem. Thanks!

Hi julsal,
It seems like you are work with template apps. What happens you test with common power bi apps? Did the same issue appear?

Dear Anonymous, thanks for your reply. Indeed, collinq was right. After subscribing to the Pro license, it worked.
As I mentioned earlier, I don't understand why Microsoft makes the developers' life so difficult. It would be so easy to just communicate straightly the reasons of an error, instead of given a bunch of meaningless error codes.
Best,
