Fabric F64 capacity Question

Hi Team,

 

I have a F64 capacity using which I have created a Workspace  and I have a Power BI report which has excel  workbook data. I need help understand when I pause the F64 instance the report built in the workspace goes all blank/No data is displayed.Please may I have help understand if this is the expected behaviour?

The power BI report needs soem compute capacity on which it needs to run. Hence pausing the capacity makes the report not usable.

So depending on the downstream users of the report, you can have the report deployed in Pro workspace , refersh the report and then turn off the capacity.If you need a premium capacity, then you need to have the capacity on full time

That is expected behavior.
