The required feature is not enabled for this column type error when creating taxonomy column
I am trying to create a new taxonomy (managed metadata) column in SharePoint online. However, I am facing below error when try to select term set for this column.
The required feature is not enabled for this column type.
I have tried this on both team sites and communication sites. I also don't see any OOTB managed metadata columns such as Enterprise Keywords present in the site collection.
Is this an issue with my tenant?

I'm stuck with this today on my developer tenant (targeted release) in a modern team site:
Unexpected.
Edit:
The solution was to enable the missing feature using PnP PowerShell:
Enable-PnPFeature 73EF14B1-13A9-416b-A9B5-ECECA2B0604C -Scope Site -Force
Now if this is the recommended approach I don't know...
- I've also seen this issue today on a demo tenant that I've provisioned. Managed Metadata service is running and has terms available, but can't use the Managed Metadata column type in a document library
mohandivraniya I have the same issue on newly created modern sites. On one tenant it works, on another - not. Also I can't add SharePoint add-in
mohandivraniya Have you checked if your able to access term store manager?
- Yes, I was able to access term store manager.
The behavior is very weird. Today, when i checked again, term store management link is now available and I am able to create managed metadata columns. I didn't provide any extra permission or enabled any settings/features.mohandivraniya probably service was down yesterday when you tried, you can ask your Tenant Admin to check more on this
