change fabric capacity
how do we change fabric capacity from F64 to higher version in power bi?
Hii powerbiexpert22
You cannot upgrade Fabric capacity (e.g., F64 >> F128) from Power BI or the Fabric portal.
Capacity size and SKU can only be changed by the Microsoft 365/Azure admin in the Azure portal, because Fabric capacities are billed and managed as Azure resources.Path:
Azure Portal >> Resource group >> Your Fabric Capacity (e.g., F64) >> Scale >> Select a higher SKU (F128, F256, etc.)After scaling in Azure, the new capacity automatically appears in Power BI / Fabric workspaces.
So the upgrade is done in Azure, not Power BI.

Hi powerbiexpert22,
This needs to be done in Azure and you need to have at least contributor on the subscrioption.
