Figured out it was caused by a Power App created for expiriments months ago. Not sure why it only happended just now. Probably because of Fabric Trial period?
Anyway, we have deleted that app and now everything works well.
Hi rkhabibulin
The error is genuine and points to two supported causes: your workspace contains Fabric items (like Lakehouses, Warehouses, Data Science artifacts) or it’s tied to a different region than your Embedded capacity.
Power BI currently does not allow reassigning such workspaces to Embedded.
I suggest following these steps:
- Open the workspace and remove any Fabric items so only Power BI reports/datasets remain.
- Check the workspace region in Settings → Premium/Embedded; it must match the region of your Embedded capacity.
- Clear any soft‑deleted items from the workspace (visible in the Admin portal).
- If the mismatch persists, create a new workspace in the same region as your Embedded capacity and migrate your reports there.
Did it work? 👍 A kudos would be appreciated
