Why is Power BI Service prompting this message: "Free User cannot apply model changes, upgrade to PowerBI Pro" when I try to add a Column in table in the Data Model from some dataset (this path: https://app.powerbi.com/groups/xxxxxxxx/modeling/ , once I have the Trial of Power BI Pro?
Hi, VictorRayanF
As a Power BI service user with a free license, you explore content (such as reports, apps, scorecards, dashboards, and more) in order to make business decisions. That content is created by designers who have Power BI Pro or Premium Per User (PPU) licenses.
If you want to create and share content, or open content that someone else shared with you, you must have a Pro license or a Premium per-user license. You might be able to sign up for a free 60-day trial of the Power BI Premium per-user paid version. When the 60-day trial expires, your license reverts back to the previous version, either free or Pro, and you no longer have access to features that require a Power BI Premium per-user license.
