Connect PPU to Azure ADLS Gen 2

Hi There, I have some PPU licenses and some Workflows and I would like to store the workflow output in ADLS Gen 2. When I try to connect Azure storage I get this message. I can use the save button, but nothing happens.

My capacity looks like this, but what region is it in?

It seems region was not the problem; it was permissions.

There were actually two problems:
    1/ The documentation does not cover permissions very well, this was a permissions problem
    2/ When the service fails to connect with a permissions problem, it does not give any message, that I could see.

Hi. The thing is that the Power Bi Region should match the storage account one. When I tested this as Pro (not ppu but I assume it's the same) I have first gone to Power Bi Service -> Three dots (options) -> Help & Support -> About Power Bi. There you will see your Region.

Then you can go to Azure portal and create your storage account in the same region. Be sure to enable "Hierarchical namespace" before creating the resource. Power Bi uses the lake gen2 with that options activated.

I hope that helps,

Yeah, I pretty good with my home region as I specifically changed it to Australia East, it's the region of the premium capacity that I'm stuck on, do you know how to get that for a PPU capacity. The message shows it may not be the same as the tenant home region.
