Can I monitor and govern Fabric data agents?

Hi team,

I want to determine if it is feasible to create dashboards that monitor and govern data agents in Microsoft Fabric. These agents are trained on specific datasets and allow users to query data using natural language, which is converted to SQL.

The goal is to track:

  • Is there an out-of-the-box mechanism to capture user feedback or errors when the agent returns incorrect or incomplete answers?

  • How can we track agent ownership, trust scores, and identify high-risk agents through existing logs?

  • Model quality/performance

  • Agent monitoring (name, number, average trust score, high-risk agents)

  • Logs of agent performance and user feedback

Any insights, documentation links, or experience-based advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you

Hi @nikitathakur ,

 

This is an interesting use case and I totally get why you’d want to have all that monitoring and governance for Fabric data agents. From what I know, out-of-the-box Fabric doesn’t provide a full suite for deep agent monitoring like trust scores, detailed user feedback, or agent-specific performance logs directly in the UI. Some high-level metrics and basic logs are available, but they’re mostly focused on overall system activity, not granular agent behavior.

A couple of things you could try though:

  • If your agents are running queries via Fabric’s native tools (like Data Activator or pipelines), you can pull operation logs and maybe combine them with custom logging in your agent logic. This way, you might get things like agent name, timestamps, and error events, but you’d probably need to stitch together dashboards manually (Power BI is good for this).
  • For user feedback or capturing errors, there’s no built-in feedback/annotation loop yet, so you’d have to build a small feedback form or logging mechanism on top of your solution.
  • Trust scores and model quality would likely require custom metrics. You might consider tagging logs with quality indicators or using external monitoring frameworks to track these over time.

If you want detailed governance, it’s mostly a matter of combining what’s available in Fabric logs with your own custom tracking and visualization. There are some docs on Fabric monitoring but nothing super deep on agent-level telemetry as of now.

If my response resolved your query, kindly mark it as the Accepted Solution to assist others. Additionally, I would be grateful for a 'Kudos' if you found my response helpful.

Hi @nikitathakur,

Currently, Microsoft Fabric does not provide built-in monitoring or governance tools specifically for Data Agents. However, you can utilize tools like the Monitoring Hub and Workspace Monitoring to track refresh history and pipeline executions of the underlying datasets that agents depend on.

If agent-level monitoring (such as logging prompts/responses, trust scores, or usage stats) is important to your scenario, I recommend submitting this idea to the Fabric Ideas - Microsoft Fabric Community.

If it gets enough community support, Microsoft may consider it for future updates.

Please refer to the below document link.
