Curretly we can only setup capacity email notifications when we hit a certain CU% threshold or when the capacity hits 100% at certain timepoint. But most of the time (specially with power bi) it doesn't mean that we have problems nor that user experience is compromised. Having an optiong to send email notifications when we hit 100% interactive delay and 100% interactive background would be of great help.   On my side we're trying to setup a monitoring solution to auto-alert when a capacity it throttled. Is power automate + fabric metrics dataset a viable solution? ... View more

In Azure we give our resource a name using a standard naming convention. For Fabric one of our capacities is named something like xxx02prdxxxfab001 (xxx1 = our prefix, prd = production, xxx2 = solution abbrivation, fab = fabric resource, 001 = capacity number 1). We are using this naming convention, because properties of a resource can change and you don't want te get stuck with a resource name with a specific name, that might not be valid in the future.   But this name is now also the name of the capacity in Fabric, where, in Fabric, we actually want to rename it to a name more recognizable to it's properties, like "F64 production capacity". The option is already there in Fabric on the capacity settings, but you can't change the name after clicking the pencil button. We are using multiple capacities, so it would be usefull to have the ability the rename the capacities.   ... View more

Please allow developers the ability to download the png file that was uploaded to be used as an icon for an app in Power BI service either calling the API or using a Powershell cmdlet.

Problem: The auto-save feature in Gen 2 Dataflows automatically saves changes as you develop the dataflow. While generally helpful, this can be problematic in certain situations: Experimental Changes: When making significant changes or experimenting with different transformations, auto-save can create unwanted versions or interfere with the development process. Accidental Errors: If you accidentally introduce an error or break the dataflow, auto-save might save the broken state before you can revert the changes. Version Control: Auto-save can make it more difficult to manage versions of your dataflow, especially if you're using Git integration. Proposed Solution: The feature request is for Microsoft to add a setting (e.g., a checkbox or toggle in the Dataflow editor) that allows users to enable or disable auto-save. When auto-save is disabled, changes would only be saved when the user explicitly clicks a "Save" button. Benefits of Implementing this Feature: Improved Control: Developers would have more control over when their changes are saved. Reduced Risk of Errors: It would be easier to experiment with changes without the risk of auto-saving a broken state. Better Version Control: It would simplify version management, especially when using Git integration. ... View more

Fabric needs a comprehensive way to backup all content including object definitions, data, and security.  Git Source Control is at best a work-around for recovering individual item definitions.  Each warehouse has restore points, but it only points to the actual data and lacks flexibility to meet customer retention policies.   In order to store data in Fabric, we need ways to back up and restore data with ease.  If built-in options aren't possible, then 3rd party tools need to be able to connect.  A great example today is M365 (notably,  exchange & sharepoint). There, customers can use 3rd party tools to backup, restore, and retain data according to their own policies.  We need this or similiar options for content stored in Fabric. ... View more

Understand that this is just a repurposed forums in some fashion, but would be great to fix up this 'Idea' section a bit with some polish.   What is 'Top Kudoed Posts' - do you mean most upvoted?  (You use 'Votes' everywhere else)   Looking at the first 'Kudoed Post' with 4k upvotes it says "NEEDS VOTES" in all caps.  What?  Needs votes for what, to be considered?  How many votes does it need, is 4k not enough? Is this just a status that means it's not WIP or something?     Also, the top post shows as being posted in 2024 but all the comments are from 2020 - is 2024 when it was created or last updated?  Confusing.   There are like 30 items in the 'Categories' dropdown filter, did you use a RNG to determine ordering?  Some Fabric items are near the top, some are near the bottom, it's obviously not alphabetical.   Having a 'Top Ideas' tab is silly if you default to including Completed ideas.  Default to NON Completed ideas otherwise the first several pages by default are items that might have been completed years ago.   ...

Microsoft should allow users to choose whether to enable smoothing rather than making it a mandatory feature. The smoothing capability should be an option, not an imposition from Microsoft.

If you want to change the name of a Dataflow Gen2, you go to its PROPERTIES. But for a Dataflow Gen2 (CI/CD, preview), you change the name under SETTINGS. If you want to change the name of a Lakehouse, you go to SETTINGS.   Where you go to change the NAME of an artifact depends on its TYPE. This is inconsistent and confusing to the users.   "Properties" and "Settings" are synonomous. They should be combined into ONE area, not two. ... View more

Have been looking into amending the Request Access messages as we use a separate Request System for managing Access Requests.   Whilst doing this I found the following - You can amend the Access Request message on an App or on a Semantic Model, but you can't amend a message for Workspace or the associated Report for a Semantic Model - both of these options would be very useful.   For example I set a message on a Semantic Model, but when sharing the associated report link to a user without access, the message displayed was the default message and not the amended one. Another useful option would be to have the Access Message request managed in the Admin Portal, where you could select to apply it to App, Workspace, Report or Semantic Model.  We have a lot of Pipelines/Workspaces and a lot of reports within them, so this would save a lot of time rather than going through individually.  If this could also allow you to add a Placeholder, so that it automatically identifies in the message which App, Workspace, Report or Semantic Model, the user is requesting access to. Also as an observation - when amending the message on the App, you can include a hyperlink which remains as a hyperlink when the message is displayed.  But when amending the message on the Semantic Model, the hyperlink is lost and is just displayed as plain text. ...

In Lakehouses and Warehouses, I can use SSMS and script out an existing table with simple SSMS right-click context menu. But for the CREATE TABLE statement that gets generated, it includes the clause "ON [PRIMARY]" and this is NOT allowed here. SSMS needs better awareness of the types of databases it is connecting to. If you do this connected to a Synapse data warehouse, you don't get this clause. ... View more

When using the SQL Analytic Endpoint from a Fabric Workspace to connect via SSMS, there are now FOUR (used to be TWO) databases for Staging. These should be hidden in SSMS.  I sort of assume that they are kind of like tempdb in SQL Server where the user has no business doing things in there. I should not have access to these databases. Please hide these database from the general user population in SSMS. ... View more
