    Hi LAT 


    The smallest a P1 capacity can be is 8 v-cores. When you split it into  4 v-cores it changes to an EM SKU, and in this SKU this means that you cannot share it with Free Power BI Licenses.

     

    I would suggest changing your P1 capacity to Gen2 and it will not suffer any of the older historical issues.

    More details on Gen2 can be found here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/admin/service-premium-concepts
