premium error message

Power BI Premium is required

The dataset for this report is backed by premium files storage and can only be loaded on a Premium capacity. Go to Workspace settings and move the workspace to a Premium capacity to re-enable the report.

I used to have a premium workspace for this report, but since then it's now on Pro, some of my reports there are refreshing on demand and scheduled ; others aren't and I get the above message.  

  • Yeah, Pro is not premium capacity. Premium Capacity is when your organization purchaes a P or F SKU (P SKUs are depricated though). You can mimick a P3/F256 by having a PPU. You either need to get your PPU back or get an F SKU (as long as you get F64 or higher you will have the premium capacity of Power BI). What is Power BI Premium? - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

  • This looks like you do not have premium capacity. If you did, you would see Premium Capacity as an option in licenses. You would likely have a sku like P1, P2, P3 or F64, F128, or F256. You may have possibly had a premium per user before, but you would need a PPU license for that.

      audreygerred Thank you.  I had premium, but now since we lost the license, the availability is not there anymore.  Now even if I have Pro (only option available), the reports still give me the error message above.
