Setup Microsoft Fabric with Premium Capacity (P1)

[forjar]

I am looking to take advantage of the Microsoft Fabric platform and I have a PowerBI Premium Capacity license. When I go to create a Fabric Capacity workspace, the option is unavailable. I can create premium and premium per user workspaces.

I am unsure of what I am missing. Any thoughts?

Hey @forjar ,

you can not create a "Fabric Capacity" workspace without a dedicated F capacity. By default you can use Fabric workloads with P capacities when you or your Power BI Service Administrator enables the use of these workloads.

Read this article carefully: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/admin/fabric-switch?WT.mc_id=DP-MVP-5003068

Hopefully this will help to get you started and help to enjoy Fabri's capabilities.

Regards,

Tom

@forjar When you say unavailable, do you mean it is greyed out or you don't see the option?

It is greyed out and I can't select. I do see the option, just can't select it.
