Automate fabric workspace administration via powershell

[paulv]

Hi,

at the moment we are evaluating fabric to replace a custom solution with differnent Synapse and a single Purview instance for our organisation.

My question is, is it possible to automate several administrative tasks, like

- creation of workspaces or

- the role assignemants for these workspaces

for example via powershell?

For Azure Synapse, this is possible for Synapse via Powershell and partly for Purview.

At the moment this is possible for Synapse, but the role assignement is possible in Purview.

If not, is it planed? and if yes, when should this feature be available?

Thanks,

Paul

Hi,

There are Powershell features to make the creation of a Power BI workspace, for example: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoftpowerbimgmt.workspaces/new-powerbiworks...

The deployment pipelines are available in power BI and can be integrated with Azure DevOps. I believe this will evolve towards this direction you are looking for.

Kind Regards,

Dennes
