Metric sets in Premium Per User Workspace with Premium Per User user license
Hi servemn,
Thank you for reaching out in Microsoft Community Forum.
Although Microsoft documentation suggests Metric Sets (preview) are supported in Power BI Premium Per User (PPU) workspaces,
Please follow below steps to resolve;
1.Fabric Metric Sets require a Fabric capacity (F SKU) and are not supported in PPU workspaces, even if tenant settings are enabled.
2.The error message indicates the workspace is on PPU, not Fabric capacity.
3.Use a Fabric-backed workspace to create Metric Sets.
4.If you're tracking KPIs, consider using Power BI Scorecards, which are fully supported in PPU.
Please continue using Microsoft Community Forum.

Hi Pavan, we have set things up exactly the way you suggest, but it doesn't help. As GilbertQ suggests, the documentation appears to be outdated. Ben

Thanks Pavan. I think the documentation should be clearer, ideally. The problem with Scorecards and Metrics - as available for Pro or PPU users/workspaces - is that the functionality if very limited, e.g., RLS is not supported, etc. So those options are not going to provide what we need. Hopefully some kind of Fabric-per-user licensing is offered in future because it seems odd to hide the Metric set option behind that paywall given that - of ALL the Fabric functionality - this is the ONLY thing we're interested in. We're obviously not going to triple or quadruple our costs just for that. Thanks anyway.
