Helper IFabric keeps deleting files!!
Hi alloowishus,
Thanks for providing the additional details and for clarifying the sequence of events.
Based on your description, the workspaces were not connected to Git, and you did not perform any other workspace operations during the 3 to 4 day period. Therefore, the Git-related deletion scenarios discussed earlier do not appear to apply to this situation.
The fact that multiple workspaces were affected and that the semantic models, reports, and folders were all missing is important context. To help narrow down what may have occurred, could you provide the approximate date and time when you last confirmed that the items were present and when you first noticed that the workspaces were empty?
If available, any relevant activity or audit information from that timeframe would also be helpful. If the issue occurs again, providing the steps leading up to the behavior, along with the affected workspace and item types and approximate timestamps, would help with further investigation.
Thank you for the additional information.
Helper IWe had some semantic models in a workspace and were trying to put in them in separate workspaces for security reasons. New workspaces were created in Fabric and the semantic models were deployed using the Tabular editor. I also started working on a Power BI report directly in the workspace. I was doing this for about 3 or 4 days, I did no other operations. I also did the same thing for a different workspace. One day I loaded up fabric and both these workspaces were completely empty. I lost a good deal of work in one of them, the other one I luckily had setup github so I was able to recover them. Also please note that it also deleted all the folders I had created, so it was not a "woops" moment where I accidentally deleted a semantic model.
