Dynamic Activity Name

In a Fabric Pipeline is there anyway to get the Activity name from the previous activity to use in Dynamic Content?

Hi @adamlob ,

Currently, Fabric Pipelines  do not directly expose the previous activity name as a dynamic property. Dynamic content allows you to reference outputs, status, and system variables, but not the literal activity name itself.

 

You can’t directly pull “previous activity name,” but you can pass it via variables or infer it through outputs.
