Fabric Data Warehouse git update issue with correct stored procedures

RehanH14 — Fri, 09 Jan 2026 11:46:12 GMT

We’re seeing a repeatable issue with Fabric Warehouse + Git integration that appears to be a deployment bug, not an actual SQL problem.

Scenario

We have a Git-enabled Fabric workspace with a Warehouse.
The Warehouse contains a stored procedure.
The stored procedure:
- Compiles successfully
- Executes successfully
- Has been tested and works as expected

Steps

Create/update a stored procedure in the Warehouse.
Commit changes to Git.
Create a PR and merge into main (merge succeeds).
Go back to the workspace attached to main.
Select “Update from Git”.

Issue

During Update from Git, the workspace update fails with a SQL syntax error on the stored procedure.

However:

The exact same stored procedure runs fine when:
- Executed manually
- Created in another workspace
- Dropped and recreated manually
The error only happens during Git sync
The syntax error is inconsistent / misleading
Manually opening the SP and clicking Save (without changes) allows it to work again

This strongly suggests the issue lies in the Git → Warehouse publish process, not in the SQL itself.

Expected Behaviour

Workspace should update cleanly from Git
Stored procedure should deploy as committed
No syntax error should be raised for valid SQL

Question

Is this a known issue with Fabric Warehouse Git integration?
Are there known limitations or required patterns for stored procedure deployment (e.g. DROP + CREATE vs CREATE OR ALTER)?
Is there a recommended workaround until this is fixed?

Happy to provide logs, screenshots, or the full error trace if needed.

Thanks!

hi RehanH14 ,

Yes — this appears to be a known limitation in the current Git integration for Fabric Data Warehouse, which is still in preview.

What’s happening?

During Update from Git, Fabric attempts to re-deploy the stored procedure via SQL project logic.
This sometimes leads to false syntax errors, even if the procedure runs fine manually or in other workspaces.
Simply opening the procedure in Fabric and clicking Save often resolves it — confirming it's a deployment issue, not SQL syntax.

Known Issues (based on community + Microsoft docs):

Git + Warehouse sync can fail inconsistently, especially with stored procedures.
Microsoft documentation confirms that Git support is still evolving, with limitations around SQL object deployment.
Common issue threads: Example

Workarounds & Best Practices:

Use CREATE OR ALTER PROCEDURE instead of CREATE alone — it's more reliable during deployment.
Keep stored procedures modular and simple where possible.
Use deployment pipelines or SQL projects for production-grade rollouts.
Treat Update from Git as less predictable for complex SQL objects during preview.

Hi RehanH14 ,
Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum.

I would also take a moment to thank ssrithar   , for actively participating in the community forum and for the solutions you’ve been sharing in the community forum. Your contributions make a real difference.

Yes, this aligns with current Fabric Warehouse Git limitations. Since Git integration is still in preview, stored procedures can fail during Update from Git even when the SQL itself is valid. The fact that saving the procedure manually resolves the issue strongly suggests a deployment problem rather than a syntax issue.

Hi RehanH14 ,

This behavior is expected as Fabric Warehouse Git integration is currently in preview. Please wait for a fix in upcoming releases.
