    Hi ifeanyi 

     

    • Thank you for sharing your thoughtful workaround for managing least-privilege access in Microsoft Fabric.

    • We understand the current limitations around granular role-based permissions, especially compared to Synapse or Data Factory.

    • Using a dedicated collaboration workspace to isolate contributor access is a practical and effective solution.

    In the meantime, if you're open to it, we recommend sharing your approach and suggestions on the Fabric Ideas - Microsoft Fabric Community It’s actively reviewed by the product team and helps influence future roadmap priorities.

    Let us know if you’d like assistance with anything else or help streamlining your current setup further.

    Hi v-aatheeque ,

    Thanks for following up. Anonymous response provided useful insights. 

    However, some other user have also reported experiencing similar issues, indicating a gap between expected functionality and actual implementation. This concern needs to be raised with the Microsoft Fabric team for further clarification.
