Scenario: User have embedded Power BI reports into a Dynamics 365 portal using secure embedding. When users access the portal for the first time, they are prompted to sign in to Power BI. After authentication, the embedded report loads successfully. However, if the user refreshes the browser or opens the portal in a new tab, the embedded Power BI report again prompts for sign-in, even though the user is already authenticated in the Dynamics 365 portal session. Current Behavior / Limitation: This behavior aligns with the current design of secure embedding, where Power BI authentication is handled separately and does not persist across browser refreshes or new tabs. This limitation is documented in Microsoft Learn: Embed a report in a secure portal or website - Power BI | Microsoft Learn As a result, users are required to repeatedly authenticate to Power BI, leading to a suboptimal user experience. Idea: The user expects a seamless single sign-on (SSO) experience, where users who are already authenticated into the Dynamics 365 portal can view the embedded Power BI report without being prompted to sign in again, even after refreshing the page or opening a new tab. ...

Currently, Excel workbooks connected to a Power BI / Microsoft Fabric semantic model (for example, via Analyze in Excel or Power BI dataset connections) do not automatically refresh when the underlying semantic model is updated. Users must manually open the Excel file and trigger a refresh for the latest data to be reflected.   Current Behavior The semantic model refreshes successfully in Power BI / Fabric. Data refresh occurs only when: The Excel file is opened in Excel Desktop, or A manual refresh is triggered. Expected / Desired Behavior Provide an option to automatically refresh Excel workbooks when the connected semantic model completes a refresh, especially for files stored in OneDrive or SharePoint while opening a report in Excel web. ...

**Problem:** The Event Hubs Spark connector bundled with Fabric requires a custom Java/Scala callback class (`AadAuthenticationCallback`) to use AAD/Managed Identity authentication. In Fabric's managed notebook environment, it's not feasible to compile and deploy custom JVM classes — notebook-defined classes fail with `ClassNotFoundException` on executors.   This means organizations that disable SAS/local auth on Event Hubs (a common enterprise security policy) **cannot use the Spark Event Hubs connector at all** in Fabric.   **Additionally,** Fabric Eventstream also only supports SAS keys for Event Hub connections, creating a second blocker.   **Ask:** 1. Add a built-in `DefaultAzureCredential`-based callback to the Spark Event Hubs connector so `useAadAuth=true` works out of the box — no custom JARs needed 2. Add Managed Identity / Entra ID authentication support to Eventstream's Event Hub source connector   **Impact:** Any Fabric customer with enterprise security policies that require Managed Identity authentication for Event Hubs is currently blocked from real-time ingestion through supported connectors. ...

The bookmark navigator does not show the correct selected state when you leave a report and then come back to it, which can create confsion for end users and even result in erronous reporting of metrics. I could replicate the issue in a report Reid Havens built and recorded a quick video showing this.

To address the challenges of organizing and presenting data due to the limitations of column and row headers, a potential solution would be to implement a new matrix visual with customizable controls, allowing report creators to adjust the dimensions of columns and rows, group them hierarchically, apply diverse styles, and use conditional formatting. ...

Scheduling Hub   It would be great to to be able to see which items in your fabric workspace (and capacity) have schedules and if they are on or off. A bonus feature would allow you to enable and disable the schedules right from the list view (editing could still open the item in the editor and open the scheduling pane).   Being able to manage schedules from a central location is helpful in 'emergency' scenarios where you need to turn off all the pipelines and notebooks for a workspace. It could also be useful to ensure developers are not mismanaging schedules in Dev or Feature Branch workspaces (where we might typically not want them running). A whole set of useful columns are possible: Item Name  <click on the name to go to the item!> Item Type Workspace Schedule Type Next Scheduled Run Last Scheduled Run   Icons.. Edit Pencil, Enable/Disable, Trash Can The possibilities are endless!   ... View more

Currently, the Capacity metrics app only shows data from the last 14 days regarding Capacity Consumption. This amount of data is insufficient, and the Customer would prefer to view capacity consumption by month to better understand their monthly usage. To get 30 days of data, they must manually export the 14-day data, as there is no automation for this process. This makes it difficult for the Customer to review their Capacity consumption for an entire month. ... View more

The request is to ensure Schedules are not included in the definition of a Data Pipeline for purposes of Deployment Pipelines.   Today, when we deploy content across environments, the item frequently appears as “different” because the schedule configuration is included in the comparison. This creates constant noise and makes it harder to identify meaningful differences.   More importantly, a schedule configured in DEV or TEST can be promoted into PROD as part of a deployment. This creates a real operational risk and is unacceptable — PROD scheduling must be managed independently and explicitly, not carried over from lower environments. ... View more

The app publishing failure was caused by a tenant‑level setting, which was identified only through local browser traces. However, the Power BI UI displays a generic error message (“Failed to publish app”) without providing any specific error or warning to indicate the root cause. If the UI exposed a clear and actionable error or warning message similar to what is available in browser traces it would significantly reduce troubleshooting time and allow issues like this to be resolved within minutes. We recommend enhancing the UI error messaging during app publishing to surface tenant‑level configuration issues more transparently. ... View more
