Copilot For Power BI
I am a heavy user of Power BI. Is there any way for me to try Copilot for Power BI? I don't have the required license, but I really want to learn how to use this feature.
Below are the copilot prerequisities :
- Your administrator needs to enable Copilot in Microsoft Fabric.
- Your F64 or P1 capacity needs to be in one of the regions listed in this article, Fabric region availability. If it isn't, you can't use Copilot.
- Your administrator needs to enable the tenant switch before you start using Copilot. See the article Copilot tenant settings for details.
- If your tenant or capacity is outside the US or France, Copilot is disabled by default unless your Fabric tenant admin enables the Data sent to Azure OpenAI can be processed outside your tenant's geographic region, compliance boundary, or national cloud instance tenant setting in the Fabric Admin portal.
- Copilot in Microsoft Fabric isn't supported on trial SKUs. Only paid SKUs (F64 or higher, or P1 or higher) are supported.
As long as you belong to a workspace with premium capacity(F64 or above), you can leverage copilot in Power BI service or desktop.

How can anyone afford a F64 Capacity License?
It is > $8K / month!
I am a single person in my company that only wants to create a report using Power BI Desktop from my CosmosDB data. I cannot justify spending that much per month to just get help with designing and developing my Power BI report. I already spend $28 / month for Copilot Pro as a user in my Tenant, I also spend $20 / month for A Power BI Premium Per User license as well.
This just does not seem correct when all I want to do is try it to see if it is helpful in developing Power BI reports.Robb | BROCK SYSTEMS | [email protected]
couple of weeks back the F64 restriction has been removed and now copilot is supported in all F SKUs including F2 as well.
But yes, the cost aspect is high!!
Hi Bom, To use copilot you need fabric license, without it it's not possible.
