Share Fabric Data Agent

Hi Antoine1733,

Hi

You're right, there isn't a single official Microsoft document that outlines a comprehensive permission matrix for all Data Agent sharing scenarios (such as Lakehouse vs Semantic Model, direct sharing vs workspace access). The permissions are spread across several articles, which can make setup expectations unclear, especially since some preview features still use workspace-level checks internally.

For semantic model–based Data Agents, the typical permissions needed are:

• Access to the Data Agent
• Build permission on the semantic model
• Sometimes Viewer access on the workspace, depending on tenant or security configuration

For Lakehouse-based Data Agents:

• Read and Execute permissions on the Lakehouse
• Access to the Data Agent
• Workspace-level checks might apply in some preview or security scenarios

The most relevant official resources are:

• Share Fabric Data Agent documentation
• Fabric Data Agent concepts
• Semantic model permissions documentation
• Workspace roles documentation

Currently, the behavior depends on both documentation and the current implementation or preview limitations, so troubleshooting may require testing additional workspace permissions even if they're not explicitly documented.

Thank you.
