Idea: Ability to Restore Deleted Items in Microsoft Fabric Workspaces

Today, if something is deleted from a Microsoft Fabric workspace (like a Lakehouse, Notebook, Pipeline, or Dataset), it is permanently removed with no simple way to restore it. This can be risky, especially when deletions happen by mistake or during development and testing.

I propose adding a restore or recycle bin feature at the workspace level. When an item is deleted, it should be kept in a temporary recovery area for a defined period (for example, 15–30 days), allowing workspace admins to restore it if needed.

This feature would:

  • Protect against accidental deletions
  • Reduce downtime and rework
  • Improve confidence when multiple users collaborate in the same workspace
  • Align Fabric with common enterprise expectations for data and asset protection

A workspace-level restore option would greatly improve usability, governance, and operational safety in Microsoft Fabric.
