Create a Group icon not showing under My Workspace (edX Lab 6 issue)

[stoansah]

I am about to start Lab 6 as I have reviewed Organization Packs, Security, and Groups. I did also complete labs from Power BI Service and Working with Excel, and got them all right. I just signed into my account at http://www.powerbi.com, but my dashboard is not allowing me to create a new Group as required by Lab 6. What I have on my screen is shown in the link below:

https://app.powerbi.com/groups/me/dashboards/397ac81c-9085-4f0e-b907-3e414d549cb4

I should be able to locate CREATE A GROUP under My WorkSpace in the navigation pane, but there is nothing there. Am I using a different software? What have I done wrong? Lab 6 doesn't specify a particular data source for the exercises. Why? Any help woul;d be much appreciated.

Hi @stoansah,

Did you see the "Create app workspace"? It's upgraded from Group. You can try it out. Please refer to service-collaborate-power-bi-workspace and service-install-use-apps.

Best Regards,

Dale
