Hey there! I’m stuck at one point. I don’t have a work or student email account, so I can’t sign in to Power BI Service. Is there any way to access it without a business email? Please help me with a solution. Any guidance would be appreciated!

    Hi Khushi Vanawat,

    Thank you for reaching out to us on the Microsoft Q&A forum.

    It seems like Power BI Service requires a work or school email for full access. However, there are a few options you can consider:

    1. Use a Personal Microsoft Account: You can sign up for Power BI using a personal Microsoft account (e.g., @outlook.com or @hotmail.com) for limited features and access to the free version of Power BI.
    2. Sign Up for Microsoft 365: If you would like to access additional features and use a work or school email, you can sign up for a free Microsoft 365 trial https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/try. This will provide you with an organizational email that you can use for signing into Power BI and other Microsoft services.

    If you are still facing any issue, please let us know in the comments and where you are encountering this error along with the screenshot for reference. We are glad to help you.
