Hi @Murad,
As the group creation in Power BI is now controlled by the group creation in Exchange Online. Please check in your Office 365 tenant whether group creation option is disabled. Or contact with the Exchange Online admins whether they disable this functionality. By the way, one user account can create up to 250 groups, make sure you haven’t exceeded it.
