A cloud-based identity and access management service for securing user authentication and resource access
The error indicates that sign-in to Microsoft Entra ID succeeded, but the account doesn’t have permission or licensing to access Microsoft Fabric/Power BI in that tenant. For a Fabric trial, an Azure account and appropriate Fabric/Power BI permissions are required.
To use a Fabric trial for learning, follow the supported path using a personal email and a new Azure/Fabric context instead of the corporate account that is blocked:
- Create an Azure trial account with a personal email:
- Go to the Azure free account page and select Try Azure for free.
- Sign in or sign up with a personal email address (for example, Outlook, Gmail, or Yahoo) and complete identity verification.
- After registration, ensure access to the Azure portal.
- Create a user in Microsoft Entra ID for Fabric:
- In the Azure portal, open Microsoft Entra ID.
- Under Manage, select Users.
- Select New user → Create new user and create a user with the personal email address, set a password, and finish user creation.
- Copy the user principal name (UPN) of this new user.
- Sign in to Microsoft Fabric with this new user:
- Go to the Fabric portal.
- Sign in using the new user’s UPN and password.
- When prompted, enable two-factor authentication with Microsoft Authenticator and complete any required prompts.
- Activate the Fabric free trial:
- In the Fabric portal, select the profile icon (top-right).
- Select Free trial, choose a capacity region, and select Activate.
If the Start trial option is missing or Fabric access is disabled in a tenant, Fabric or Power BI administrators must enable trials or assign capacity. In a corporate tenant, contact the Fabric/Power BI administrator or security/Entra admin to confirm whether Fabric/Power BI access is allowed for that work account.
