Source option missing
- 1 year ago
Hi smpa01,
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum. The solutions provided by the datacoffee, are correct according to the thread.
And, I have identified few alternative workarounds that may help resolve the issue. Please follow these steps:
You are correct. When you create a KQL database directly from the Event house or Fabric UI, the "Source" step does not appear in the "New Table" wizard. This behaviour is intentional.
Navigate to the workspace settings by clicking the workspace name and selecting "Settings." Under "Workspace type," you should see “Real-Time Intelligence” listed. If this is not visible, you are not in an RTI workspace. Only RTI workspaces support streaming scenarios with the full table wizard, including the Source step.
Tables created manually from One Lake files will not automatically refresh when the files are updated. This information is crucial for setting expectations and directing them towards the appropriate methods, such as Event Streams or Notebooks.
Option A: Use Event Streams- Create a table from Event Streams > Add Destination > New Table.
- This enables the full wizard with Source, supports auto-refreshing data when new events arrive.
Option B: Use a Notebook to Manage Refresh
- Use a notebook to drop and recreate/update the table regularly.
- This is more manual but gives you control if Event Streams are not part of your current setup.
Kindly refer to the below documentation links:
Get data from Event stream - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn
Create an event stream in Microsoft Fabric - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn
Real-Time Intelligence in Microsoft Fabric documentation - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn

Verify Your Workspace Type: Ensure the workspace you're working in is a Real-Time Intelligence workspace. You can confirm this in the workspace settings. - what am I looking for?
What amI currently doing? Creating Eventhouse -> creating KQL DB -> Was expecting same as 27:49
Insetead I see this after - Creating Eventhouse -> creating KQL DB
But I don't get the same option if I do this
I need to work with what I have; so circling back to this, if I stick to this; where I am connecting to One Lake file from this UI to build a db table; can I expect this to be auto refreshed upon the same onelake like update? I will be updating the files in onelake with notebook.
