When you click the elipsis next to an object in the Fabric browser interface and select "Save as" the behavior is dependent on the type of object you are copying. If the object is a Dataflow Gen2 CI/CD, then after getting created IN THE SAME FOLDER AS THE ORIGINAL, it opens the object for editing. If, on the other hand, the object is a Pipeline, Fabric opens BOTH the original object and the copy. And, oh, by the way, the new object is created in the ROOT folder, not the folder in which the original object resides.  I have not tested functionality for other object types Save As operation, but I bet there are at least two other variations of what happens. Please be consistent! ... View more

Power BI needs the ability to show which button is currently pushed on a dashboard. There are workarounds (creating 2 bookmarks for each button or creating 2 buttons for each items and switching visability). Please add this feature it would save so much time in creating dashboards.   Ideally the "selected" state would state illuminated. Currently when you click on a button the "selected" settings will show up briefly but then disapear (ex background changes from white to grey but doesn't state grey).   This is incredibly frustrating and other users have this same issue (see thread).     https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Desktop/Highlight-clicked-button/m-p/495050#M230789 ...

Need a more efficient way to do a direct connect to Snowflake databases in Power BI Report Builder. Trying to use Power Query functionality for complex reports and multiple types of filters is not working, and performance is terrible.   Custom sql does not seem to work.  Connecting via the Snowflake ODBC driver seems to be the better option at this point in time, at least it accepts SQL code. ...

I have a huge Dataflow that saves multiple tables in the Lakehouse. When in dev stage, some get stuck or take too much time to be finished. Whenever this happens, I duplicate the problematic queries and try different and more efficient approaches and try running again to compare results.   When I have to cancel the run, whenever I check the history, it does not show anymore which tables succeeded or were still in progress while it was running, nor even all the ones that were supposed to be processed. It would be great to have this in the history of runs similarly like it has when the dataflow is successfully completed.     ... View more

Request to complete info.view functions and add all model assets:  INFO.VIEW.CALCULATIONGROUPS INFO.VIEW.CALCULATIONITEMS INFO.VIEW.PARAMETERS     Mainly for convenience, but I also have an example use case for this: to dynamically load a table of model metadata for user verification.    To be specific, I'd like to have this as a calculated table, but it is currently not possible since calculation groups are not exposed in INFO.VIEW functions.    EVALUATE VAR MeasuresTable = SELECTCOLUMNS( INFO.MEASURES(), "Object Type", "Measure", "Category", [DisplayFolder], "Name", [Name], "Description", [Description], "Definition", [Expression] ) VAR CalcItemsTable = SELECTCOLUMNS( INFO.CALCULATIONITEMS(), "Object Type", "Calculation Item", "Category", "Calculation Perspective", "Name", [Name], "Description", [Description], "Definition", [Expression] ) RETURN UNION(MeasuresTable, CalcItemsTable)     ...

Today ISINSCOPE() returns TRUE not only for the column that actually defines the current row header, but also for every ancestor column above it in the same visual hierarchy. This makes it impossible to write a single, generic measure that can detect “exactly which level I am on” when users freely drag-and-drop fields in a matrix or chart. As a result, we are forced to hard-code every possible field order or rely on work-arounds such as calculation groups with manual slicers—both of which break the self-service promise of Power BI. We need either: 1. A new function ISCURRENTHIERARCHYLEVEL() that returns the zero-based index of the current level, or 2. An ISINSCOPEEXACT() function that returns TRUE only if the column is the lowest-level scope for the current cell. This would allow one measure to dynamically calculate “% of parent” regardless of how users arrange their hierarchies, without requiring visual calculations or visual-level functions. Please prioritize this model-layer capability for DAX. ... View more

PowerBI would benefit from the addition of custom rulers to better align elements and an easy way to measure the distance of an object from the edges of the workspace or other objects. Rulers would follow a typical drag and drop structure (similar to the Guides in PowerPoint), while the distance measurer would require pressing a hotkey to quickly get the measure of a button in the UI.   This would streamline the design procedure a lot and would reduce the effort required to design well crafted dashboards.     ...

I have a matrix with a date column, and under each date are several values.  I was asked to make the vertical gridlines between dates thicker and darker and leave the vertical lines between the values under each date a little lighter and thinner.  This helps to visually break up the dates better.  There doesn't seem to be an easy way to do this.  Would be a nice feature, unless it already exists and I haven't found it ... ...

In the Source Control interface within Microsoft Fabric, the commit message field is labeled as "Optional Commit Message." This allows users to commit changes without entering a message, which undermines traceability and governance in our deployment pipelines.   Additionally, when selecting a modified item (e.g., a report like Leads_Report), there is no auto-population of the commit message based on the selected file name. This leads to inconsistent commit logs and manual overhead.   Feature Requests:   Mandatory Commit Message Enforcement:   Commit button should remain disabled until a non-empty message is entered. Ideally configurable at workspace or tenant level for governance enforcement. Auto-Populate Commit Message Based on Selected Artifact:   When a user selects a modified report or dataset, the commit message field should auto-fill with a default format like: "Update: Leads_Report" This improves consistency and supports automated traceability workflows.   Environment:   Microsoft Fabric workspace Source Control panel (DEV branch) Artifact: Power BI report (Leads_Report)   Business Impact: We are building automated governance pipelines that rely on structured commit messages for work item linking, audit trails, and rollback logic. Lack of enforcement and automation here introduces risk and manual effort. ... View more
