A webcam is also recommended for the best experience! You will also need to have both Power BI Desktop and Power BI Service (part of Microsoft 365 Apps), available on your device.Power BI Service is what Microsoft call the version of Power BI found in their M365 subscription list of apps. It won’t be there as a default and is something your Microsoft 365 administrator would have to enable. It is free of charge and literally just a tick box. They will need access to this as this is where reports are published to and the only place where Dashboards can be created.
