Hello Team, We would like to propose an enhancement to enable detailed tracking of workspace license changes through audit logs and API. Currently, audit logs provide options to capture events such as updating workspace access, updating workspace settings, and delegating tenant settings, along with renaming workspaces. While these are helpful, there is no capability to track when a user changes the workspace license type (e.g., from Pro to PPU or vice versa). We recommend introducing functionality that allows administrators to capture and retrieve these license change events through audit logs and API. This would significantly improve transparency and governance for workspace management.

In order to interact with related artifacts As a Fabric User I want to be able to access one item's location directly from the item at stake from any of the ways it is accessible (Search Page, OneLake catalog, Lineage view - this would be very user-friendly as a way to navigate between related artifacts -) So That I can get to the artifact's context in a more straightforward fashion Whereas today, I can open the artifact, then get to the workspace, and wander throughout the workspace to get to it

Allow ADX with Private Endpoint to securely connect to Azure Monitor (LAW) public endpoints, OR Support AMPLS (Azure Monitor Private Link Scope) integration for ADX, enabling private and secure cross-service communication. Issue: When Azure Data Explorer (ADX) is configured with a Private Endpoint (PE), it loses the ability to perform cross-service queries against Azure Monitor / Log Analytics (LAW). This limitation prevents critical analytics and monitoring use cases where organizations rely on cross-querying LAW data from ADX for unified dashboards, compliance reporting with custom datasets or levering ADX data source in Azure workbooks. ADX cannot reach Azure Monitor’s public endpoints when PE is enabled, and AMPLS (Azure Monitor Private Link Scope) is not supported for ADX, leaving no secure private networking option available. Business Value: This enhancement will restore secure, supported cross-query functionality for ADX-based analytics and Azure Workbooks without requiring public exposure or redundant data ingestion.

Power BI currently only supports daily or weekly refresh schedules, which is limiting for enterprise workflows. I need the ability to: Schedule refreshes on specific dates (e.g., 5th of each month). Trigger refreshes based on when source tables finish loading (e.g., SQL tables or flat files). Or at the very least assign a custom refresh date to each specific table. Tableau supports this natively, and it's critical for aligning reporting with ETL processes. Please consider adding these options directly into the semantic model settings or dataset configuration UI—without requiring Power Automate or external tools.

With Power BI at an enterprise scale, our governance of the platform takes top priority. Today, there is no setting to limit or restrict the creation of folders within workspaces, other than the restriction for viewer users. This would create a chaotic situation with hundreds of contributors and members on the platform. It would be best if we can have a fabric tenant setting which would provide us the ability to toggle between enabling/disabiling the creation of folders, along with who (user group) can create folders when enabled.

Hi this is just a simple request. I work at a fortune 25 company and my team is looking to automate our monthly results deck using Power BI. Our company is strict on formatting and suggests we use Source Sans Pro consistently throughout every deck. Since that is not an option in PowerBI for titles, we have to make manual adjustments once the deck is exported to PowerPoint. If Source Sans Pro could be added to options for title font, that would be amazing! Thanks

I am running a Listing Prodcution Detail report. I would prefer the ability to select the columns/parameters I need for any given report. I would need to add the Listing Concierge column - if the agent is utilizing it o not and what level.

As the name suggests, in Warehouse & Lakehouse, we have the option to create and save queries. It would be great if one could create a sub-folder under My Queries to better organise the scripts saved. Thank You

Ensure that for each source table and target schema (preferably per database), there is at most one Lakehouse shortcut. This prevents duplication of shortcuts pointing to the same source, simplifies data governance, and reduces confusion in downstream processes. Problem Statement: Currently, multiple shortcuts can be created for the same source table within the same schema, leading to redundancy and potential inconsistencies in data access and lineage tracking. Proposed Solution: Implement a validation mechanism or enforcement rule that checks for existing shortcuts before creating a new one. If a shortcut already exists for the given source table and target schema (or database), the system should either: Block the creation of a duplicate shortcut, or Prompt the user to reuse the existing shortcut. Benefits: Improves data consistency and governance. Reduces storage and maintenance overhead. Enhances clarity for developers and analysts working with Lakehouse shortcuts.

When we publish a Schemantic Model from our local to service, it just says Publishing that file and we have to keep an eye on if that is getting published or not. Instead, if we can keep a loading bar as how far it has published based on the size of the file or total MB's uploaded out of total MB's of that Schemantic model could help users to understand how much time it is taking to upload the file to server. Thanks.

We are aware that the Microsoft 365 Usage Analytics app is currently available only in English. It would be highly beneficial if this app could be localized into additional languages, such as Japanese, to better support users across different regions. Providing multilingual support would greatly improve usability and accessibility for non-English-speaking users.

It would be great if Power BI could automatically generate a color theme for reports based on an uploaded image, website URL, or logo. For example: Upload a company logo → Power BI generates a matching palette for all visuals Input a website URL → Extracts main colors and applies a cohesive theme Benefits: -Saves time manually choosing colors -Ensures brand consistency in reports -Helps users create visually appealing reports effortlessly This feature could be combined with existing themes and allow minor adjustments for personalization.

The Reactor DataDays webpage https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/collections/2g42i3mww7z36g?wt.mc_id=1reg_26407_webpage_reactor&source=docs has a bad link to https://aka.ms/fabricdataydays when it should be https://aka.ms/fabricdatadays

I am unable to use field parameters in Power BI Report Server. It can be used normally in the desktop version of Power BI, but when publishing reports to the report server, the slicer for field parameters cannot take effect.

One of my clients is using Key Vault to retrieve secrets, which is a good thing. They also want to move to the integrated options, removing the need for them to use a private link that takes time to become available and slows down development and data processing. The main reason they can't do this is because Key Vault doesn't support RBAC yet, it's only ACL authentication. ACL is something the good people of Azure are advising against. Please enable RBAC support for this feature, using the Fabric workspace identity 🙂

Hi Team, Currently, Power BI allows assigning a single bookmark to a button, but there is no option to link a button directly to an entire bookmark group. I have created multiple bookmark groups, each containing several related bookmarks. It would be extremely helpful if a single button could trigger all bookmarks within a group — either by cycling through them or by executing the entire group sequence automatically. Why This Feature Is Needed Reduces the need to create multiple buttons for related views Makes report navigation smoother and more user-friendly Simplifies UX when handling complex bookmark-driven interactions Helps developers maintain cleaner and more manageable report layouts Suggested Feature Enhancement Please consider adding: a. “Assign Bookmark Group” — An option to choose a bookmark group instead of a single bookmark b. “Trigger Mode” — Ability to run all bookmarks sequentially or cycle through them This enhancement would be highly valuable for Power BI developers who rely on bookmarks for storytelling, navigation, and advanced UI customization. Thanks and Regards, Kanchan Giri

Currently Microsoft Fabric does not have a window to monitor key metrics from Microsoft Purview. You need to access Microsoft Purview hub which is also very basic. Could Purview hub be more functional more integrated with Fabric at least for workspace admins? Idea is not to get into dedicated Purview activities via Purview portal, but I should be able to see some integrated Purview monitor right on my Fabric page.

Fabric home page - could this be designed with "my favorites", "my last 10 fabric items", "my last 5 fabric workspaces", "pipeline status", "report refresh status", "failures", etc? Actually the home page should not be a page to skip - it should be very relevant for a developer, designer, workspace admin with the sections/functions that they require to perform. Quick access is available at this moment, that too you need to scroll if you are using a small screen.

Could there be a predesigned naming template definition which can be attached to a capacity or a workspace? Availability of a configurable template in a capacity or workspace will ensure better adherence to naming standards for all Fabric items that gets created/authored. Capacity admin or workspace admin should have the authority to create/modify/attach naming templates.

Direct Lake mode currently forces every report consumer to be added directly to the workspace in order to view reports that use Lakehouse tables. This defeats the entire purpose of: Power BI Apps Audience views Role-based access Separation of development from consumption Because of this limitation: I cannot publish a Power BI App containing Direct Lake reports unless every single user is added to the workspace. If I use App Audiences, users who are not workspace members get errors and cannot see the Direct Lake content. This forces me to either: Give dozens/hundreds of users workspace-level access (which is inappropriate and messy), OR Avoid Direct Lake entirely even though it is the recommended, optimized Fabric experience. This effectively blocks enterprise adoption of Direct Lake for any scenario where: Not all users belong in the dev workspace Audience segmentation is required RLS or scoped access is required Workspaces are used as development/staging areas Ask / Proposal: Allow Direct Lake models and reports to be consumed through Power BI Apps without requiring workspace membership — the same way Import and DirectQuery models work today. This is absolutely essential for: Data governance Security boundaries App-based distribution Enterprise scalability Real-world deployment patterns Direct Lake becomes unusable for most organizations without this.
