How deploy copilot using Vscode when running PowerBI backend?

Question

I'm hosting a 2022 SQL Server Adminstrator on an Office instance of m365, but the boot screen doesn't allow for adminstrator privelege access for the powerbi backend. How to fix?

Answer 1

I think ur issue comes from the M365‑join dropping elevation before SQL wakes, so a single login with real local‑admin to bring the SQL svc up is the cleanest fix… and giving PowerBI read/exec on the share early avoids the next stall.

Answer 2

Hi @Garrett Settles ,

When hosting SQL Server 2022 on M365 Office instance, the boot screen doesn’t allow administrator access for Power BI backend.

1. Run SSMS as Administrator: Right-click SQL Server Management Studio and choose Run as Administrator to get full access.
2. Check Permissions: Ensure your SQL login has sysadmin rights. In SSMS, go to Security > Logins and verify that the correct account has sysadmin role enabled.
3. Power BI Access: Make sure the Power BI service has the right permissions to connect to your SQL Server. Use either Windows or SQL Authentication depending on your setup.
4. Network/Firewall: Double-check that no firewall rules are blocking the connection between Power BI and SQL Server.

If this doesn’t fix it, take a look at the error logs in both Power BI and SQL Server for more clues.

Hope that helps. Let me know if you need further details.

Thanks,

Akhil.
