Can you please check the user license details in O365 admin portal.
In that check for the Products and if Power BI (Free) and Power BI (Pro) enabled.
Please disable Power BI (Free) and click save.
Try to logout the power bi service and login to check for the Power Bi Service.
Path:- Settings >> Manage Group Storage >> It will show you the license (Free/Pro)
As suggested above, Please check check and let us know if you have any concerns.

Hi @Anonymous ,
Please suggest the user access Power BI service then go to desired workspace, click on Get Data -> Files to publish the report, check if this issue will still occur.
In addition, you may check if your account subscription to confirm if pro license correct activated on this user's account.
If you still have this issue for Power BI, you'd better create a support ticket in Power BI Support , Scroll down and click "CREATE SUPPORT TICKET", or go to Issue forum to get further help.
Best Regards,
