I bought Power BI Pro without an organization email account, so Microsoft asked me to create a new account ending on "onmicrosoft".
For now, I can use this account to log in to Power BI Service, but can not sign into Power BI Desktop. Therefore, I can not publish reports from my Power BI Desktop to the service.
Below is the warning when I sign in to Power BI Desktop with this account.
very sorry to hear that! In that case you will not be able to use the license purchased in the org account. you must purchase with onmicrosoft account only. Basically , you cannot have desktop logged in one account and microsoft account with another!

Thanks, Vijay,
As you said, because I do not have an org account, I had to purchase with "onmicrosoft" account which Microsoft indicated me to create.
You: "Basically, you cannot have desktop logged in one account and Microsoft account with another!"
Clarify to me, if I understand you. Microsoft gave me an "onmicrosoft" account which I can log in to https://portal.office.com/ and Microsoft 365 admin center, but, can not log in to Power BI Desktop.
I want to login with the same account, but Power BI Desktop won't let me.
When you have purchased Pro License using your Org Account , no need to create "Onmicrosoft Account"
Login to server using your org account credentials and you must be able to publish reports.

Sorry, everyone, it is my mistake. The email address should include the last domain part".com".
Now it works after I entered the whole address.
Thanks, VijayP
I got laid off, so I do not have an org account.
you can still create a free account https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/fundamentals/service-self-service-signup-for-power-bi
but that wont give you access to the organisations power bi service .
as Vijay says you need to log into the same tenant if you want to publish to the organisation.
