Warehouse table not deleting from interface

[ivamsikrishna]

Hi, we are facing typical issue with Microsoft Fabric warehouse. We created a table and dropped (after deleting the data) but we still see the table in the schema (on the leftside under schema ancestor) and if we do a select command on that very specific table it was showing table or view doesnot exist. It is strange, is it something known issue, physically table deleted but on the user interface it is still visible (it causing very confusion). Is anyone face the same issue, please help us resolving the same.  

Thanks. 

Krishna.

Hi @ivamsikrishna,

This is a known UI behavior in Microsoft Fabric Warehouse. Even after a table is dropped, it may still show up in the schema explorer due to metadata caching in the UI. However, if you query the table and it returns "does not exist," then the table has been correctly dropped at the backend.

You can safely refresh the schema pane (right-click → Refresh) or reopen the warehouse tab to clear the UI cache. This doesn’t affect actual data operations and is just a temporary UI artifact.

Thanks,

Prashanth
