Currently via the ... next to a pipeline we can select recent runs and the window on the right hand side displays the start time of all recent runs, but does not detail the end time or durations of those runs. Whereas via the monitor hub if we locate a historical run and use the ... and select historical runs it shows the runs with the start end, end time and Duration. Due to a high number of pipelines locating previous runs in monitor can be slow as we cannot limit the filter to find pipeline names without first paging through 100's of jobs, so looking for historical runs is far quicker via the pipeline itself. Can we make these two different ways of access previous runs of a pipeline consist and show the start and end times as well as the durations.  This will make it easier compare historical runs time and performance. ...

💓 Yes please to custom access messaging - upvote the socks off this post! 💓 We stilll have a gap in the access messages feature in Power BI in 2026 - lets see if we can muster enough upvotes to change it! Semantic models can have a unique access message on them, however workbooks cannot have a unique access message on them. If you host hundreds of Power BI reports, the administration on the dreaded default "I would like access" message is no fun. Users today have their own sharepoints, documents, why cant we have the functionality on customization of that dreaded access message?     Yes you can use the app to change it in a workspace, but the issue with that is only one app per workspace is allowed. Why should users opt to add more workspaces making topologies more complex when they need not have to be that way. Org apps is introduced 2026 which allows multiple apps per workspace - but only one access message is allowed. This should be a standard in apps if were moving that way, each app should be capable of having a customized message per app. We get user complaints all the time on this subject, from the many posts even this one as solved so do others.   Two things i would like this idea to change which would give a gain to anyone who administers a workspace. 1. Workbook access message customization for those who dont want to use the app as standard in 2026. 2. Org apps to include custom message per app as standard in 2026.   What do we need to facilitate change? Upvotes, encourage all your users to upvote this proposal and add some comments, lets see in 2026 if we can fix this issue! 💪 ... View more

Hi MS Support team,   Currently, when you use Spark SQL to create a temp view with tables that have schema name, the temp view can't be used in later steps.   For example,   Firstly, create a temp view using below code   CREATE OR REPLACE TEMPORARY VIEW tmpvw1 AS SELECT     * FROM     IM.test t1     LEFT JOIN  ref.testref t2     ON t1.key= t2.key   In next step, select the temp view tmpvw1 using the following code:   SELECT * FROM tmpvw1   You will see a error message similar to below  "Error [TABLE_OR_VIEW_NOT_FOUND] The table or view `IM`.`test` cannot be found. Verify the spelling and correctness of the schema and catalog. If you did not qualify the name with a schema, verify the current_schema() output, or qualify the name with the correct schema and catalog. To tolerate the error on drop use DROP VIEW IF EXISTS or DROP TABLE IF EXISTS. SQLSTATE: 42P01; line 1 pos 14; 'Project [upcast(getviewcolumnbynameandordinal(`tmpvw1`, new_column, 0, 1), StringType) AS new_column#690, upcast(getviewcolumnbynameandordinal(`tmpvw1`, TestCol, 0, 1), StringType) AS TestCol#691] +- 'Project [*] +- 'UnresolvedRelation [IM, test], [], false"   In PySpark, it works fine. The current workaround is to encapsulate the SQL code inside a PySpark code.    %%pyspark spark.sql(""" --insert SQL code below SELECT     * from     IM.test t1     left join     ref.testref t2     on t1.key= t2.key """).createOrReplaceTempView("tmp_python_view")   Could you please enable Spark SQL to create temporary views using tables with schema, just as PySpark does?   Thanks, Homan   ...

Today, Power BI semantic models (datasets/DAX) work well when Power BI is the only BI tool. However, many organizations use Databricks as their lakehouse and need consistent, governed metrics across multiple BI tools, ML pipelines, and APIs.

Problem When customers open Fabric ontology for the first time, they face a blank canvas. They have to design entity types, properties, relationships, and naming conventions from scratch — often without a clear reference for what "good" looks like in their domain. This design phase alone can take weeks of workshops before any technical work begins. For most enterprises, the patterns are well-known — a retail ontology has Customer, Product, Order, Store, Inventory; a manufacturing ontology has Asset, WorkOrder, Site, Material. Customers are reinventing the same models, slowly and inconsistently. What would help Ship a starter library of sample / template ontologies for common industry domains: Retail Manufacturing Supply Chain Financial Services Healthcare Sustainability / ESG HR / Workforce Sales / B2B Even read-only reference templates (entity types, properties, relationships, sample queries) would be valuable. Importable starter ontologies that customers can instantiate and then bind to their own data would be even better. Microsoft already has this domain expertise through Common Data Model, Dynamics 365 industry data models, and Industry Clouds — extending those into Fabric IQ would be a natural fit. Why it matters Removes the "blank canvas" problem and shortens design time from weeks to hours Provides Microsoft-validated patterns customers can trust Accelerates Fabric IQ and data agent adoption — a templated ontology plus Copilot can produce a working agent in a day Impact Templates lower the barrier to entry for ontology, especially for customers who know their data but aren't sure how to model it semantically. Combined with stronger creation paths (automation from lakehouse), this would make Fabric IQ approachable for any enterprise, not just those with existing semantic modeling expertise. ... View more

The primary axis are outdated and require significant improvement when compared to Excel.

Category color in the new Card visual resets when repointing to a different data source. Even when using the same field, changing the data source causes the category/header color to revert to default.

We don't currently use Fabric Copilot because of the CU risk or our Fabric capacity, and as a result have it turned off on our tenant.   Power BI report builders and consumers in my organization resort to copying and pasting code and issues to M365 Copilot for help, which requires additional time and loses context of the object you are working on, and is not agentic. We are losing productivity gains and potentially better results.    Pro code developers are starting to use GitHub Copilot in VS Code but this is not accessible for everyone.   I can see that the Fabric and Power BI Copilot features released to date and data agents would be beneficial for both types of users, however due to the cost it will remain turned off for the foreseeable future unless the costing changes or we can bring our own user licence for AI features.   Most of the Power BI builders/developers in my org have a M365 Copilot or GitHub Copilot licence, I happen to have both at the moment. It seems strange that we can't use these Microsoft licences that we already pay for to use Copilot in Fabric and Power BI. Can we please have the ability to bring our own user AI licences.   The uptake of Fabric copilot features will increase and we will require more user licences as a result. GitHub Copilot and M365 Copilot also have better governance features for organization admins to track queries and usage. ...

Power BI custom visuals currently have no official and supported way to trigger report page navigation or apply report bookmarks from inside a .pbiviz visual. This is a significant limitation for developers building advanced navigation components, custom sidebars, dynamic menus, guided experiences, or application-like report interfaces. Power BI already supports page navigation and bookmark actions through native buttons, page navigators, and bookmark navigators. However, custom visuals cannot invoke those same actions through the Visuals API. A supported API would allow custom visuals to request actions such as: - Navigate to a report page by page name or page ID. - Apply a report bookmark by bookmark name or bookmark ID. - Optionally expose the list of available pages and bookmarks to the visual. - Respect report permissions, sandboxing, tenant settings, and security boundaries. Example API concept: ```ts host.navigation.navigateToPage("ReportSectionabc123"); host.navigation.applyBookmark("BookmarkName"); host.navigation.getPages(); host.navigation.getBookmarks(); ...
