Power BI Pro Trial - Transition to Power BI (Free)

[tmcc11]

I have a user that initially subscribed to Power BI Pro Trial to view reports that another Power BI Pro user was publishing. The Power BI Trial Period ended and we uninstalled Power BI Pro and made sure that the user has access to Power BI (Free) under their Microsoft Account. When we share a report with the user, we are still getting asked to Purchase Power BI Pro. How do I get Microsoft to stop asking for the user to purchase the Power BI Pro License (trial is over) and just have it use the Power BI (Free).

When you share the reprt again with the user, they will be required to have a Power BI pro license unless you have Power BI premium capacity.. You can't share a report with a free user unless you have premium capacity.

Does this make sense?

Is this the setting that I need to change in order to "activate" Premium Capacity?

You can't just enable it. It is a completely different licensing model than Power BI and it starts from $4,995/month. 

I would start here -
