How to assign a PowerBI license

Before anyone in your organisation can access Sorted Insights, you must first assign a Power BI Pro license to whoever will view the reports. Once this has been done, our Sorted Administrators can set up and provide your users with access to the Insights reporting platform.

You can grant a Power BI Pro license to your users through your Microsoft Azure Portal or the Microsoft Office 365 Admin Centre. You will likely need your IT administrator to help with this as the should have the permissions to carry this out.
