Fabric F2 Capacity wanting me to Upgrade to Trial Capacity

[AW_1989]

Hi All,

I have been using Power BI for a while but am very new to Fabric and some of the "IT admin" elements that come with this. I work in a Finance department so am pretty good with IT but by no means an expert.

As a buisness we wanted to leverage some of the new features that Fabric offers eg notebooks, Dataflows, Lakehouses etc, we are a relatively small buisness so want to minimise cost where we can. I was under the impression I would be able to setup an F2 capcacity at relatively low cost and then use some of these new capabilites.

I created an Azure account and managed to setup an F2 capacity, I have then allocated this to a test workspace in Fabric/PowerBI so that I can test out the functionality. In the workspace that I created when I try and create any of the new fabric items it brings up the below message saying I need to upgrade?

Is my understanding inccorrect and I cannot create these items with the F2 capacity? Or have I got some settings inccorrect?

Many Thanks

Hi @AW_1989 , Check in the Tenant Settings if Users can create Fabric items is enabled.

Hi,

You can check @Wikkleyn_81 suggestion & you can also check this part in Fabric Capacity - Lower Tier (F2 - F32) in the below post.

Hi,

In your workspace settings please check whether you have assigned your workspace to that fabric capacity or not.

Thanks,
