MIssing library variable in pipeline error
Hi MilanPit
The pipelines continued to operate for several months because their configuration referenced the WorkspaceID library variable, and its absence from the Parameters library did not initially affect execution. Although this resulted in an inconsistent setup, the missing variable was not validated in a way that caused errors at first. However, when the service attempted to resolve the library variable during execution, it was unable to find WorkspaceID in the Parameters library, which led to a VariableNotFound error and highlighted the configuration issue. Removing the outdated WorkspaceID from the Library variables addresses the problem, as the pipeline will no longer search for a non-existent variable. Since Microsoft Fabric is a cloud service that receives ongoing backend updates, changes in validation or execution processes may sometimes expose previously unnoticed configuration problems.If you have any further questions, feel free to reach out and we'll be glad to assist.

Hello MilanPit
Check if you have a Variable Library item in your workspace called "Parameters" and a Variable called "WorkspaceID". It is quite likely that you have either one or both missing. If they are both there, then you can try deleting the variable reference from the list and re-binding it again with the Variable Library.
Also, when you're referencing the variable library, you'd need to refer it using the correct name - your library variable is called WorkspaceID (Name of the variable) but you're referencing a variable called GenericPipeline. GenericPipeline should exist in the variable library list of your pipeline.
