PowerBI Report now requiring Premium Capacity
Hi ZIre acurwood , for my use case, I had to get rid of any resources that were Fabric resources (Such as Dataflow Gen2, Data Warehouse, etc.) and then change the license in my Workspace to Premium Per User. This got rid of the error. Alternatively, as a short term fix (Because Trial License is only for a limited period of time), we changed the License to Trial, and the reports started to work.
(Pro License does not support some datasets that are backed by Premium Capacities). I unfortunately do not have more to share with you, let me know if this helps.
For those who are still struggling with this issue, the Power BI support identified a potential cause and solution. It is likely that when we turned on the (Fabric) Trial capacity, there is an option "Semantic model storage format". If we selected "Large semantic model storage format" and reports published in those workspaces will default to using that storage format - which requires premium capacity. Once the Trial is over, those reports are stayed in that storage format (check Semantic model > Settings).
The solution (as described by the support but I didn't try): switch the workspace to Trial, the above setting can be updated. Once updated, switch back to your original License tier.
