How can I tell if my institution or my account already has a Power BI license?
You can check if your institution already has a Power BI license by following these steps:
-
Sign in to Azure portal - reference: View and manage Power BI user licenses
-
Search for and select Azure Active Directory.
-
Under Manage on the Azure Active Directory resource menu, select Licenses.
-
Select All products from the resource menu, then select a Power BI license type to display the list of licensed users.
Please note, every user who utilizes the Power BI service is required to have a license. The type of license a user possesses determines their access and capabilities within the service. Licenses can be free, Power BI Pro, or Power BI Premium Per User. Checking these settings will confirm if your institution has a Power BI license.
It is important to note that you will need either a Power BI Pro or Premium license in order to view a shared dashboard from Percept Research.
