    Hi Nermin,

     

    You can upload your wheel file (.whl) to the workspace or Lakehouse and install it in your notebook code using %pip install /lakehouse/default/Files/<your_wheel.whl>. This is a quick method, but it means the install runs at the beginning of every session.

     

    Currently, Microsoft Fabric Python notebooks (non-PySpark) allow you to use custom libraries by uploading a wheel (.whl) file and installing it manually using pip within the notebook, but there is no official, streamlined way to natively register and reuse custom libraries as you might expect in more traditional environments.

    Hope that helps.
