Hello everyne,
I need your help.
I have synapse with private endpoint and the pbi's dataset is connected with it.
Are there any limitations or considerations about this connection? For example , will i need premium license in power bi?
Thanks in advance,

You will need a gateway to connect to the private end point. There is currently no way in Power BI Service to do this - web to web service. There is a vnet gateway in the Power Platform service that relieves you of the need for a physical/virtual machine for the gateway, but I am not sure if this is Premium capacity needed, but you might have to pay for the Power Platform vnet.
I have used the vnet gateway with Power Platform on private endpoints, and it works. It is a System with Premium capacity and Power Platform licenses.
