Anyone else unable to Save a Copy of Fabric Items?

Greetings, all. I have been trying to save a copy of pipelines for some time now and keep just getting a spinning loader. Anyone else experiencing this or is it just me? This happens to multiple pipelines in different workspaces.

Hi @arpost ,

Thanks for using Fabric Community.
It looks like an intermittent issue. I request you to wait for some time and try again later.
I also suggest to clear cache and do a retry.
Incase if you still facing this issue, please try in different browsers.

Hope this is helpful. Please let me know incase if you have further queries.

@Anonymous, same issue occurs in other browsers. Was using Chrome but tried to Save a Copy in Edge from both the Workspace view and from within the pipeline itself. Same result. It just sits there or spins.

Hi @arpost , @12angrymentiger 

We have a workaround for you.

Steps for Save As Mitigation via Edit JSON:

1. If pipeline is open and has pending changes to save but Save As is hanging, navigate to 'View' tab.

 

2. Click 'View JSON Code' to open pipeline JSON. Find "properties" field of original pipeline and copy JSON "properties" field. Paste somewhere temporarily in a file editor.

3. Find browser's URL bar, scroll to end of URL, and append '&feature.enableJsonEdit=true' at the end. Click enter or manually refresh browser.

 

4. Navigate to your workspace view where you wish to save this pipeline, click '+ New' then click 'Data pipeline'.

 

5. Name your pipeline and click 'Create'

 

6. Navigate to 'View', click 'Edit JSON Code'. Replace "properties" field of new pipeline with original pipeline. Click 'OK'

Please follow above steps untill the issue gets fixed, so that you can save a copy till time being. Please let me know incase of further queries.

Sorry for the inconvience, Team is working closely on this issue inorder to fix it.
