Ability to limit capacity usage by a single Power BI Report to prevent impact on overall capacity

In Fabric/Power BI capacities, a single report or element can sometimes consume a disproportionate amount of compute resources due to heavy queries, complex visuals, or large semantic models.

When this happens, it may impact the performance of other reports sharing the same capacity.

Currently there are limited ways to control this behavior beyond manual intervention such as: Optimizing the report, removing it, or disabling.

It would be very helpful to have capacity governance features that allow administrators to manage or limit resource usage per report.

Possible capabilities could include:

  • Setting capacity usage limits per report or semantic model

  • Temporarily throttling or pausing reports that exceed usage thresholds

  • Ability to disable a report temporarily from capacity monitoring tools

This would help us to maintain stable performance across shared capacities and prevent a single report from affecting other workloads.
