Ensure you have at least one embedded or premium Power BI capacity to use the EmbedFAST on. If one is not available, follow the steps detailed below to create a capacity:
Log into the Azure portal.
Type “Power BI Embedded" in the search bar and select said option as it appears.
Click on Create.
Fill in the required information in the Basics tab (guidance provided below). Select Next to go through all the tabs. On the Review + Create tab, review the information provided and select Create.
PROJECT DETAILS
Subscription: Choose the same subscription that will be used to deploy the EmbedFAST in Azure Marketplace.
Resource group: Choose a resource group. The resource group should be inside the same tenant/subscription that will be used to deploy the EmbedFAST.
RESOURCE DETAILS
Resource name: Create and enter a name. This is the embed capacity name and will be used for the Configure the capacity settings steps (in pre-deployment) and the steps following it. In our example, we have called it embeddedgen2.
Location: Choose a location.
Size: This is the Power BI embed capacity size. Select the resource size that best meets your needs.
Power BI capacity administrator: Enter the relevant user.

Select the EmbedFAST's embed capacity as shown below.
Click on the Start/play button.
You will now be able to run admin/embed apps and execute API endpoints.
