Getting data imported to use AutoML

[donnynz]

Hello,

I have a Power BI fabric free trial and want to give autoML a go. The issue is I can't seem to be able to import data when creating a dataflow. If I try and upload a file I get a message saying 'your account does not have a sufficient license for OneDrive for Business to complete the requested action. Please contact your organization’s Office 365 administrator.' I have tried adding a business account to my onedrive personal account but just get error message 0x8004deed and have goggled and tried everything to fix this but no luck.

How can I easily create a dataflow uploading data

Hi @donnynz ,

One reason why you might get the error message about insufficient license for OneDrive for Business is that you’re using a personal Microsoft account instead of a work or school account. You need to sign in with a work or school account that has a Power BI license. You can check your account type and license status in the Power BI service.

Another reason why you might get the error message is that your Power BI fabric trial has expired or is not activated. You can check the expiration date and activation status of your trial in the Power BI admin portal. If your trial has expired, you can either purchase a Power BI license.

A third reason why you might get the error message is that your OneDrive for Business account is not properly configured or connected to Power BI. You need to have a OneDrive for Business license and a SharePoint license to use OneDrive for Business with Power BI. You also need to access OneDrive for Business through the web interface before using it in Power BI.
