How does the shortcut handle deletions?
If a record is deleted in a shortcut table, is the information that the record was deleted lost? In particular, I am referring to shortcuts used to connect Fabric to Dataverse. Thank you!
Hello Luigia-Costabil
Dataverse shortcuts are read-only. If a record gets deleted from the source, the shortcut will reflect the deletion and the row will not be returned in Lakehouse (in near-real time) .
Hi Luigia-Costabil ,
Shortcut is an independent object from the target. If you delete a shortcut, the target remains unaffected. If you move, rename, or delete a target path, the shortcut can break.

Also, specifically for Dataverse Shortcuts-they are read-only, hey don't support write operations regardless of the user's permissions. Create a Dataverse shortcut - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn
