Hi usmanaziz 

Please can you give a little more detail? When you say you have created an individual account do you mean you have created an individual account through Power BI Desktop? Do you have a Power BI Pro licence through an Office 365 subscription or other Microsoft licencing avenue etc. What are you trying to do when you get the admin rights required pop up?

    I have taken a subject in my MBA that is Business Intelligence and Data Warehousing. So for that I had to create an acocunt for Power BI, for which i have used email address of my company where I work Full tIme. But using that email address doesnt mean I have created under my company IT team. I dont think my company has an account with Power BI. 

    my Email address is [email protected].

    I am getting below snapshot issue. my concern is when i have an individual account not an organization account then why i am not an admin.
