Incorrect "Submitter" name in Microsoft Fabric

kishore_kunal — Mon, 26 May 2025 07:40:54 GMT

Hi Everyone,

I’m facing an issue in Microsoft Fabric where the Submitter field in the Spark Monitor does not reflect the actual user who triggered or executed the notebook.

For example, even when I manually run a notebook or trigger it via a pipeline, the Submitter shown is a different user (often someone who ran the pipeline earlier or no longer involved).

This is creating confusion in audit and ownership tracking.

Hi @kishore_kunal ,

Thank you for reaching out in Microsoft Community Forum.

Please follow below steps to resolve the error;
1.The Submitter in Spark Monitor often reflects the identity tied to the pipeline's linked service or cached token—not necessarily the person who triggered the run.
2.For reliable tracking, refer to Microsoft Purview Audit Logs or Fabric Activity Logs, which capture the actual user who triggered the action.
3.If pipelines are involved, ensure that the linked service or trigger is configured with the correct user or service principal to reflect proper ownership.
4.Inside notebooks, log the user context manually (e.g., os.getenv("USER")) to help trace the actual executor during runtime.

Please continue using Microsoft Community Forum.
