Any fix planned for variables from one pipeline getting saved to another?

Greetings, all. There is a bug with pipelines where adding variables to one pipeline also adds them to other open pipelines. Has anyone heard of a fix for this? Incredibly frustrating.

 

As an example, if I have two pipelines (A and B) and add var1 to A, when I save, I go to B and see var1 there too.

Hi @arpost 
Thank you for being part of the Microsoft Fabric Community.
In Microsoft Fabric pipelines, variables created or modified in one pipeline incorrectly show up in another pipeline open in the same browser session. This is a known unexpected behavior but has not been officially fixed yet.Please do follow the work arounds.

  • Always open each pipeline in a separate browser tab or window. Do not edit multiple pipelines in the same tab/session. This reduces the risk of state leakage between pipelines.

  • After making changes to a pipeline, save your work and refresh the page before switching to another pipeline. This helps ensure that the UI state is reset and reduces the chance of unintended cross-pipeline changes
  • If you need to copy activities between pipelines, do so only after opening each pipeline in a fresh tab or window. Avoid copy-pasting between pipelines that are open in the same session.

If the above information is helpful, please give us Kudos and mark the response as Accepted as solution.

Best Regards,
Community Support Team _ C Srikanth.

 

Thank you for the info. I'm at least glad to know this is a known issue. Is there any kind of public bug I can follow to stay up-to-date on the status of a fix? This is making it very challenging to work with pipelines as I never know what's getting changed or where.

I just found this bug doesn't only apply to variables. I copied/pasted an activity from one open pipeline to another in the same browser tab and found some of my changes to the connection properties in one pipeline were made on the other!
