Power BI Embedded vs Trial

OK, will try to strip this down to the essentials.

I've been using Power BI Pro and a trial of Power BI embedded, through our company Azure portal account.

I've been testing out Power BI embedded, works fine.

I know the trial of Power BI embedded only lasts for the duration of the Azure trial (I think it's something like $200 in credits?)

I realize that at some point, that Power BI embedded demo token will expire.  

 

Here's my question.   Our company picked the A1 SKU for PBI Embedded on our Azure license - which I realize is about $750 per month.
By all appearances, when I go to into the Power BI Admin Portal, I am "hooked up" to the Embedded A1 SKU.

 

However, I'm not sure I can "prove" that it's using the A1 license and not the trial.

Those who use PBI Embedded might be aware of the API to "Get available features"

When I run that, it still shows the following (below, at the very bottom of this message), which makes me think it still is on the trial.

Now....if it seamlessly transitions from the $200 Azure trail to the real A1 license usage, that's great.  No worries.

But if it's not seamless....I guess my next question, how would I transition, when by all appearances on our Azure Portal, under the Embedded service metrics, it appears to be using it?  Hope this question makes sense!

 

Thanks

    Hi KevinSGoff ,

     

    I don’t think you need to worry.  If you update the data and subsequently the report, it should automatically be reflected where you embedded the report.
