Linking Power Apps to Fabric

Hi, I'm using the following guide with the aim of making data entered into a Power App available in Fabric 

Link your Dataverse environment to Microsoft Fabric and unlock deep insights - Power Apps | Microsof...

 

After clicking Analyze > Link to Microsoft Fabric  it opens the Validatie Configuration screen. The first step of this is 'Access to Power BI and Fabric capacity'. After spinning round for a few minutes it returns the message 'You need a Power BI premium license to continue. Click here to purchase Power BI or get a trial.' We have P1 premium capacity, so I'm not sure what I'm missing here. 

 

Any help would be appriciated. Thanks

Think the issue was that the capacity region didn't match the Dataverse environment. My capacity was UkSouth but when creating a Dataverse environment it doesn't give you the option of which Azure region you want to use, only location (e.g. United Kingdom). The actual region wasn't visible anywhere, it just said United Kingdom. 

 

It seems like the only way you can be specific about the region is to create the environment using the Microsoft.PowerApps.Administration.PowerShell module in PowerShell. I created a new environment using the code below and resolved my issue.

 

 

 

New-AdminPowerAppEnvironment -DisplayName 'YourEnironmentName' -Location unitedkingdom -RegionName uksouth

go to the admin console and check if the creation of Fabric artifacts is permitted for that P1 capacity.

Hi, thanks for the reply. Yes it is, it's limited to a particular group in the tenant settings but I'm part of that group and have been creating Fabric artifacts.
