Connection naming

Submitted by on ‎10-25-2024 07:39 AM

Currently, Fabric allows duplicate names of Data Connections. It also does not allow editing of names so you get things named "Warehouse". When you have multiple warehouses in a tenant, that is absolutely USELESS.


A) DUPLICATE names of connections should NOT be allowed. When I go to select a Data Connection, all I am presented with is the name. If I have TWO of the same name, I don't know which is the one I want.

B) Users (Admins) should be allowed to EDIT Data Connection names AFTER they have been created, and also DURING creation. (See classic Azure Data Factory for good user experience.)

I'm not sure if this is some sort of resolution of this issue, but we're noticing that, when we create a new connection with our naming convention WORKSPACE-WAREHOUSE (system_user_name), that connection name gets modified automatically to append the username of the user who created the connection. Even if we explicitly name the connection when creating it Which isn't helpful.
