I have three workspaces -- DEV, UAT, and Prod.  Within these workspaces, I have several independent projects - each with their own deployment schedule and processes. The current pipeline process makes it nearly impossible to deploy these projects independently of one another because a human being has to rebuild the pipeline for every deployment.  Not only that, but the difficulty in rebinding notebooks, semantic models, etc as part of the deployment makes the whole pipeline process a non-starter. It would make the deployment pipeline process much easier/better if I could: 1) specify what data pipelines, data flows, notebooks, semantic models, reports, environments, and lakehouses need to move between workspaces 2) specify what data within lakehouses needs to be copied 3) rebind any notebooks, semantic models, and reports In short, I want a pipeline package for each project that I can define within the source workspace(s) ...

I have a Fabric Application containing a number of related Dashboards.  I would like to be able to set filters at the application level that work as though they are passed into each PowerBI dashboard on the URL string as a ?filter= query string parameter. This will enable me to have the application pre-filter each dashboard without having the end user have to go in and filter each one independently. ... View more

As a capacity administrator, it would be extremely helpful to see all the scheduled notebooks/refreshes/dataflows/pipelines/etc in one place -- ideally with a perspective on what impact these jobs may have on the overall capacity of the workspace. Right now, anyone can set up a job to run whenever they want... and most everyone just leaves it at default -- which means twice a day (1am Pacific Time and India Time) my capacity gets dropped to its knees. Knowing what's scheduled (and who scheduled it) will enable me to mitigate this issue. ... View more

Hi Team,   Can we replicate the ADLS Gen2 Lifecycle Management options to OneLake please.   eg If a customer wants to build an archival type solution with data retension policies we can't recommend using OneLake as an alternative to ADLS Gen2 storage account as it doesn't have the same lifecycle policies to allow us to delete files.   We have this idea to bring add ability to do tiers but we need the liefcycle policy option on top please https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Fabric-Ideas/Add-storage-tiers-to-Fabric/idi-p/4508264   Thanks, Darren ...

On behalf of user request posting the idea into this forum. Reference thread link: You guys memorize your workspace guids? - Microsoft Fabric Community   Users are struggling with workspace visibility — especially when switching between dev and prod environments. The current setup hides workspace names, leaving users to rely on GUIDs in the URL, leading to mistakes and frustration. Key Issues: Workspace names are hard to access, disrupting workflow. Users resort to memorizing GUIDs to avoid errors. Frequent environment confusion increases the risk of production mistakes. Suggested Improvements: Color-coded environments (e.g., red for prod, green for dev) for instant recognition. Persistent workspace name display in a visible, fixed location. Replace GUIDs with readable names in URLs for better clarity. These changes would improve user experience, reduce errors, and create a safer, more efficient development process.   ... View more

Problem: Currently, when a dataset is connected to a Lakehouse as a datasource in Power BI Fabric, it defaults to a cloud connection mapped to SSO. In embedded mode, reports built on these datasets fail due to a lack of identity, as they do not inherit authentication from the service principal. To resolve this, users must manually adjust the datasource settings via the Power BI service https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/fundamentals/direct-lake-fixed-identity   Proposed Solution: Introduce a new REST API or extend the current API functionality to allow programmatic setting (or re-setting) of the connection to the service principal, including updating datasources. Benefits: Automates the process, reducing manual intervention Minimizes downtime for embedded reports Enhances developer experience and deployment efficiency Ensures consistency in authentication settings across different environments Impact: This feature will significantly improve the workflow for organizations embedding Power BI reports using service principals, ensuring seamless and automated datasource authentication. ...

Make it possible to write SparkSQL without having a Default Lakehouse.   With 3- or 4- part naming, i.e. [workspace].[lakehouse].[schema].[table]    there should be no need to attach a Lakehouse in order to use SparkSQL.   Needing to attach a Lakehouse is annoying and adds extra complexity. ...

It would be beneficial to incorporate features from Pivot tables that allow for the expansion and collapse of columns and hierarchical column groups within tabular visuals. This would not only solve the current limitations of matrices but also provide report creators with the flexibility to hide and show rows and columns, saving these settings for future use, thus eliminating the need to scroll through irrelevant data. ...

Fabric Data Warehouse allows reading Parquet and CSV files using the OPENROWSET function. However, it does not support external tables that reference Parquet or CSV files (CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE (Transact-SQL) - SQL Server | Microsoft Learn). This limitation hinders the straightforward migration of Polybase external tables from Synapse dedicated/serverless pools or SQL Server. The only available workarounds for migration involve either converting Parquet/CSV files to Delta Lake format or rewriting the code to use OPENROWSET, which lacks the same security model. As a result, migrating from Synapse or SQL Server to Fabric Data Warehouse requires data or code conversion.   Supporting external tables with Parquet and CSV files is crucial for seamless migration and ensuring compatibility with other SQL Server/Data Warehouse offerings. ...

Interpreting visuals without a clear legend to indicate logic behind specific styles can lead to confusion and decision-making errors.

This idea is about requesting navigation between the item types report, notebook, and real-time dashboard (rti-dashboard). The following chapters detail why this feature is important for "report navigation." Some more details The new item-type org app is great by itself, but there are two reasons why it stands out, at least from my point of view. The possibility of having multiple org apps inside a single workspace will make architecting solutions for large audiences more simple. However, being able to leverage the "mechanics of sharing" that we Power BI people know (and after all these years, I'm still impressed by its simplicity) will make consuming the new item types real-time dashboards (rti-dashboard) and Fabric notebooks a breeze. Power BI's "mechanics of sharing" will make Fabric's item types consumeable by audiences that have not been using Power BI in the past or are missing content that is different from the item types report or dashboard. Cross-item communication   But then I think "communication" between the item types report and rti-dashboard, report and notebook, and notebook and rti-dashboard is vital to close in on decision-making excellence even in the age of LLMs and Copilot. I imagine actions that allow users to navigate from a report to a notebook or to a real-time dashboard, but it's not just the navigation that I imagine; I also imagine passing the current filter context to the notebook or the rti-dashboard. Some reasons why cross-item navigation is useful These are only some possible use cases that could be answered if this communication is possible.
