Why did Microsoft automatically enable Fabric 60 days trial period without asking?

Why was my trial to fabric services activated?

I did not agree to have a trial period started.

I only use PowerBI license.
I don't care about other fabric things.

I was just clicking buttons inside PowerBI sections and suddenly this trail is activated.

Why is trial for other items hidden in powerBI sections?

 

I cancelled the trial immediately but now it says I cannot have trial again later.

So, later if my company wants to get it and test it, I'm not allowed to test it?

 

I was only using desktop version and was happy. Now that I try to explore, I am hit with trial activation, which I don't even want.

Hi. Sadly, that's how it works. Everything is available at the UI and if you try to click on something like a fabric content it will start the trial. Now your trial is on the go. You could try contact support to prevent that one from being used or counted. For now on, you can inform IT or Fabric Administrator at your organization to prevent the following setting at the Admin portal:

That way users won't be able to try Microsoft Fabric paid features with a curious click.

I hope that helps,
