Not yet resolved. Co-pilot settings in PowerBi Admin Portal is enabled and set to entire organisation by Global Access Admin. Still user is facing error -  "You can't access Copilot - None of your current workspaces are compatible with copilot. Only an admin can fix this".

Hi Anonymous,

 

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.

 

We really apologies for the inconvenience, after reviewing the issue power bi copilot, here are few steps to resolve the issue.

 

  • Please confirm the Premium Capacity requirements explicitly. Ensure that the user's workspace is correctly assigned to PPU capacity. Additionally, the administrator must enable the tenant switch before use.
  • For tenants or capacities located outside the US or France, Copilot is disabled by default. To enable it, the Fabric tenant admin must adjust the tenant setting in the Fabric Admin portal.
  • Copilot in Microsoft Fabric is available only on paid SKUs F64 or higher, or P1 or higher. It is not supported on trial SKUs.

Please refer the below document which helps you in finding the region availability:
Fabric region availability - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn

 

Also, for your reference and for better understanding to unable the copilot in fabric and to change the admin settings of the copilot:

Enable Copilot in Fabric - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn

Copilot admin settings - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn

    Thanks for the solution. I have few questions -

     

    1) Do we need to have PowerBi Premium (capacity-based-licensing)? We do not procure this license.

    2) The user currently have PowerBi Pro + PowerBi Premium Per User license assigned under his ID. Is it creating problem because he has two licenses?

    3) Microsoft Fabric (free) is provided across the organisation and is it necessary to get a paid variant of license?

    4) We have enabled co-pilot in fabric admin portal to all users in the organisation. Do we need to enable any additional settings?

     

    Thank you for your time!!!

      Hi Anonymous,

       

      Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.

       

      After reviewing of the questions about Power BI Copilot, here are the answers to your questions:

       

      1. You do not need Power bi premium if you are using Power bi premium per user licenses. The ppu license grants access to Copilot and other premium features without requiring the full capacity-based license.
      2. Assigning both Power bi pro and Power bi premium Per User licenses to the same user should not cause any issues. The ppu license, which includes enhanced features such as Copilot, will take precedence over the Pro license. This allows the user to benefit from both licenses without any conflict.
      3. Yes, to access copilot features, a paid license is required. While the Microsoft fabric free version provides basic functionalities, copilot is only available with paid licenses such as power bi premium per user or higher. users will need to upgrade their licenses to utilize copilot.
      4. If copilot has already been enabled in the fabric admin portal for all users, no additional settings should be necessary. However, ensure that:
        • The user's workspace is assigned to a Premium per user capacity.
        • The tenant settings are correctly configured to allow Copilot usage, especially if there are regional restrictions.
