Fabric 60 days trial but no access to items

Hello,
I've spent most of the day trying to get access to Fabric Items, with a new tenant and trial.

Trial Status: 59 days left, users can create Fabric items: Enabled for the entire organization.

I've tried with several new tenants,  and my developer account and I always get the same message:

"To create a Lakehouse/Notebook/Spark Job Definition/data warehouse/etc, you need a free Microsoft Fabric trial capacity. Unfortunately, your Microsoft tenant has reached the maximum number of available free trial capacities."

I don't understand why I would the message "..reached the maximum number of available free trial capacities" when I'm just getting started.
Is there something, I'm overlooking?

Thank you

Hi, Fabric community,

Here is a new update from the Power BI team:
"The trial is paused until after the New Year. You can retry after the first week of 2024."


Happy Holidays!

I've been trying to create a lake house and this is what it showing:

"Unable to create this item
To create a Lakehouse, you need a free Microsoft Fabric trial capacity. Unfortunately, your Microsoft tenant has reached the maximum number of available free trial capacities. Go to the documentation to see your options. Learn more ."
I don't understand why I would the message "..reached the maximum number of available free trial capacities" when i have 59 days left, it was just created.
Is there something, I'm overlooking?
Thank you

I still have the problem. I have a test tenant with a VisualStudio Ultimate Azure subscription. Today I activated a trial of Azure Fabric for this tenant. But I only have access to the usual PowerBI functions, but not to Fabrik. I can't swith view to data_fabric expirience. I want to test an integration scenario with an application that is deployed on my test tenant, but I can't do it.

 

Upd. As it turned out, the problem is that the region is Poland. And I don’t see a way out of this situation, since it is impossible to change the region for PowerBI. It's a shame.

Je suis surrexité de le dire. 
ça fonctionne à nouveau. 
L'essai de Microsoft Fabric est à nouveau disponible, je viens juste de le tester et ça marche pour moi. 
Bonne chance à tous pour pour la suite de vos apprentissage, découverte et tests 😉.

It's working again. The Microsoft Fabric trial is available again; I just tested it, and it works for me. Good luck to everyone for the continuation of your learning, discovery, and testing😉.

Facing the same issue, had a call with Microsoft support team. Even they were not able to fix this. I have already scheduled an exam. PANIC MODE ACTIVATED!!!

Hello @saranjit!  You have my sympathies.   Thinking this through, have you considered setting up a new Tenant as a Trial and then adding the Fabric Trial to that (this would seem a quick balm to the pain you feel over this).  Yes, you will need to work out certain logistics, though not impossible.  With that said, please create a new post with your question rather than replying to another post. This will ensure that your question gets seen by more people and answered much faster.

 

Also, you have the ability to share your concerns in the form of an Issue or Idea:

 

Issues

If you have found a true bug or issue, you can make a post to the forum to let others know (and that would be very nice of you to do so). But if you want to get it fixed, you should post it in the Issues/Ideas (it varies) area of the community. Specifically, you should post it here:

Power BI - https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/idb-p/Issues
PowerAutomate - https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/I-Found-A-Bug/bd-p/BugFound
PowerApps - https://ideas.powerapps.com


Ideas

If you have a new idea for functionality or how something should work, you can certainly start a thread on the community to solicit feedback on your idea, but you should also post the idea in the ideas section of the website and solicit others to vote on your idea. The development teams use the Ideas area of the communities to build their development pipeline and a significant amount of weight is placed on Ideas that have lots of votes versus those that do not. The ideas areas of the communities are here:

Hi, Fabric community,

@Bashisero @cheresier @RaTheMigty @KristofDMi 
Update:

I was just on a Teams meeting with Microsoft support and a Power BI engineer.
There is an ongoing bug with the Fabric Trial and the Product Team is working on it. They don't have an ETA on when this issue will be resolved.

@ibarrau Thank you for your help.

 

I'll keep you posted on the updates from the Product Team.

Thanks,
Gwen
