In this quickstart, you assign yourself a license and purchase a license for the Power BI service. This article doesn't cover signing up for a trial.
The Power BI service can be your personal data analysis and visualization tool. It can also serve as the analytics and decision engine behind group projects, divisions, or entire corporations. This article explains several ways that individuals can get a license for the Power BI service for themselves. For an in-depth review of the many other ways to sign up or purchase Power BI, and troubleshooting steps, see Sign up and purchase Power BI as an individual.
The exact steps for sign-up vary depending on your organization and what you select to start the process. There are many different ways to sign up for a free license or purchase a paid license for the Power BI service as an individual. The steps in this article apply to several of the most common, such as:
To complete this quickstart, you need:
Let's take a look at four options you can use to sign up and get a license for Power BI.
Microsoft publishes get started buttons for new Power BI users. Some of these buttons are Try free, Buy now, and Start a free trial. In this example, we select a Start free button. Find these buttons on related Microsoft product pages, in online product documentation, and in online marketing articles.
Select Start free from the Power BI website.
When prompted, sign in by using your work or school account.
In this example, Microsoft 365 recognizes you and knows that you already have at least one other Microsoft service installed. You receive a free license.
Because you're a new user, Power BI opens your Home screen. Home contains resources to help you get started.
You might even receive a pop-up with suggestions to get started. Here's one example.
You now have a Fabric (Free) license to work in Power BI. You can also use this license to explore the free features of all of the Fabric workloads. If a Fabric (Free) license is sufficient, you don't have to do anything else.
With a free license, you can try the Power BI service on your own by using My Workspace. You can also consume content from a Power BI workspace assigned to a Power BI Premium capacity and initiate an individual Fabric trial. For more information, see Power BI features by license type.
Another way to get a Power BI license is to select a Power BI link that you receive in an email from a colleague. The link might take you to a Power BI dashboard, report, or app. Selecting the link is the first time that you sign in to this Power BI account.
Selecting the link in this example takes you to the Power BI report. If this is your first time using Power BI, your email address is evaluated to ensure that you have permission for a Power BI license. Depending on your organization's subscription and self-service settings, you receive either a free or paid individual license.
Your account manager is accessed from the icon in the upper-right corner. If you previously signed up for a trial, the Trial Status displays the number of days remaining in the trial. In this example, Zalan has Trial of a Fabric capacity. Although that trial gives him permissions equivalent to a Premium Per User (PPU) license, his actual license is listed under License type. Zalan has a Fabric (Free) license and has not purchased an actual Pro or PPU license. Select Buy now to make a purchase.
In your account manager, your License type changes from Free account to Pro.
The final option covered in this article is using in-product prompts to upgrade your individual Power BI license.
If you try to use a feature that requires a paid license, Power BI offers you an upgrade or trial.
Select Buy now to upgrade your license.
At any time, you can look up your account type in your account manager. Open your account manager by selecting the circle from the upper-right corner.
In most cases, you can get a license for the Power BI service and for Fabric by following the described processes. Some of the issues that might prevent you from signing up or purchasing are described here, with workarounds:
