Hi All,
I don't work with Power BI, but I have a requirement to increase the V-CORES. I logged into the Microsoft Fabric portal.
https://app.powerbi.com/admin-portal/capacities/capacitiesList/office?experience=power-bi
when i click on Capacity Settings: I see the below under PowerBI Premium
Power BI Premium
V-CORES: 272 of 272 allocated
I don't see any free V-CORES available. Could someone guide me on how to increase the V-CORES for Power BI?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi, @maxwell2k19
If you want to increase V-CORES for Power BI, you can purchase more V-CORES by upgrading your Power BI Premium capacity. This involves purchasing higher capacity SKUs that offer more V-CORES. You can do this through the Microsoft 365 admin center or by contacting your Microsoft sales representative.
Power BI Premium provides an auto-scaling feature that automatically adds V-CORES when your capacity is overloaded. To enable autoscaling, you'll need to configure an Azure subscription and enable it in the Power BI admin portal. You can refer to the following documents:
