Hi there

Can you confirm that you have got Power BI Admin permissions?

To view this you could go into the Power BI Service , then Admin Portal and see if you can see the tenant settings.

If you do not see the tenant settings, you do not have the required access.

Hi KrishnaKolwuri ,

What Operation did you do before the warning happened? And what's your Power BI License? Maybe related to these factors.
In fact, there are multiple administrator roles in Power BI, first, you can ask "Office 365 Global Administrator" to check if you have the corresponding identity and permissions in office 365 admin portal.
What is Power BI administration?

If these's OK, please refer to these:
