Datamart - Error when trying to create on a Workspace

Hi,

 

I am getting this error when trying to create a DataFlow

 

AvPowerBI_0-1654006339322.png

Underlying Error{"code":"RequiresAutoPremiumCapacityError","parameters":{"ErrorMessage":"Unable to create datamarts in this workspace. Datamarts are supported in Premium Generation 2 (PPU/PPC) workspaces only"},"details":[],"exceptionCulprit":1}

 

Anyone know as to why? We are using a Premium Workspace.

 

 

Thanks

Just fyi, you will need Power BI Admin role or Capacity Admin to see this.

  1. Go to Power BI service, and in the top right corner, click Settings ( gear icon) and click admin portal
  2. In the admin portal, navigate to Capacity settings.
  3. Select Power BI Premium.
  4. If you have already allocated capacity, select it.
  5. A section appears titled Premium Generation 2. If the slider is at off, then you are still on Gen1.
