Writeback to data brick

Hello members,

 

I’m currently working on a proof of concept (POC) where the data source is Databricks. The idea is that users will be able to update specific columns directly from Power BI as needed. Since we’re still in the discovery phase, we’re exploring available options.

I came across the writeback feature in Power BI and had a couple of questions:

  1. Is a Premium workspace required to enable writeback functionality in Power BI?
  2. If users request additional columns to be included in the writeback process later, would that require significant rework from the development team?

Looking forward to your inputs.
