Use of parameters (dynamic content) for non-fabric sources/destinations

Hello everyone,

In a Data Pipeline Fabric, I want to make a connection (source or destination) dynamic.

However, in "connection type", as soon as I use "Add dynamic content", I only have Warehouse/Lakehouse/KQL Database.

Is this a limitation which means that connections can only be made dynamic for Fabric elements?

 

In my example I'd like to make the data source dynamic, which is an On-Premise SQL Server DB (via Gateway)

 

Thank you in advance for your help

Vivien

Hi @vivien57 ,。

There is a new Data destination feature in Fabric Data Factory's Dataflow Gen2.

That's why the types data destination are shown when you select the connection type. So I think as frithjof_v said, you can post your ideas to Idea or vote for Ideas with similar ideas to yours.
