PowerBI Copilot - access - what licenses
- 2 years ago
Hey, (Im from the product team)
The requirements were mentioned below:
- you need a P1 or F64 or above
- your tenant admin needs to have enabled it for the tenant (if your tenant admin, cant see this setting, it means it has not yet rolled out to your tenant)
We are rolling out tenant by tenant, so please bare with us whilst we onboard more and more of you. if you share your tenant ID I can confirm where you are in the rollout. The hope is by Jan everyone will have access.
I totally get your frustration , Microsoft's licensing for Copilot can be really confusing to navigate. From what I’ve seen, you typically need both a qualifying Microsoft 365 license (like Business Premium) and a separate Copilot license, plus Premium capacity. If you’re looking for a more straightforward and cost-effective alternative, you might want to check out PowerMind , it works inside Power BI without needing Copilot licenses. There’s a quick demo on LinkedIn that shows how it embeds right into dashboards.
