Power BI Pro Subscription Showing as Free Version

Hello,

I have a Power BI Pro subscription, but when I log in, it shows that I am using the Free version. I have confirmed my subscription status and would like assistance in resolving this issue.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? Any guidance on how to fix it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

      I'm not sure if the issue is related to me having both Power BI Pro and Microsoft Fabric (Free) subscriptions. When I log in to https://app.powerbi.com/, it automatically redirects me to Microsoft Fabric (Free). Could this be causing the problem?

        I think the best way to confirm what license you have is to check it in Entra ID.

         

  • Are you able to enter a Workspace (not My Workspace)? If yes, then you are fine. Only those with Pro license can enter a workspace.

      Yes, I am able to enter a Workspace, but I am unable to use any of the sharing features. It prompts me that I am not on the Pro version. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

       

  • Hi NokYau ,

     

    As dharmendars007 has suggested, first try logging out and then login to the account. If the issue still persists, then you might have enabled trial capacity. Please check the top right corner over your profile pic, if it shows trial ends in few days. Here you can cancel you trial, for making the pro subscription active. 

    Please ensure you have been granted Power BI Pro license before ending the trial subscription.

    Thanks,

    Pallavi

      I cancelled the trial as suggested, but the top right corner still shows that is a Free account.

        Hello, did you solve the issue? I've also paid for Premium, since 2-3 month but also cancelled capacity trial but still showing Free Trial.
