Power BI Lab - Issue with logging into PowerBI.com
I think this issue was brought up many times thru the discussion, but I am not able to find solutions. This is same issue: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-learn/cannot-sign-in-power-bi-account-in-da-100-lab-units/m-p/2051850#M1291 DA-100 Lab exercises require student to log into PowerBI.com, but it does not instruct way to do it (except one has work or school email address, but I am not sure how it works if his/her org does not have Power BI account). Please find attached image where it asks to login. I am not sure where one could find these info: Enter the account details provided to you. Please help us. Thank you!
