    Hi AdamMichael  yes, I have been use them EXTENSIVELY! In fact, I published a Visual Studio marketplace extension for Azure DevOps FabricCatalyst - Visual Studio Marketplace  and I basiclly use Fabric REST Api to automate the creation of workspaces with Git-integration, deployment pipelines, excute deployment stages and automate the continuos integration...   all the code can be found here techtacofriday/FabricCatalyst  here's an example: 

     

     

    Perhaps you want to extract Fabric activity, or get an inventory of your Fabric workspace & items! Once again,  REST API ! 

     

     

    Just like that, two option, one using PowerShell, another using a python notebook, in a nutshell, the API allows you to manage FABRIC PROGRAMATICALLY  😁 enabling automation, infrascture-as-code, etc. 

     

    So, hope I pick your interest and you want to explorer much more on this topic, this is something I've work extensively, so, please reach  out if you want to discuss. Hope you find this informatin useful, a thumbs up if you do and mark this as solution if appropiate. All the best
