    Hi sruthiramana,

    Thank you for reaching out in Microsoft Community Forum.

    When using Mirrored Azure SQL Database in Microsoft Fabric, .bacpac exports may fail because the Fabric service account is granted special permissions like:

    SELECT

    ALTER ANY EXTERNAL MIRROR

    Please follow below steps to acheive this error;

    1.Revoke Fabric permissions before export:
    REVOKE SELECT, ALTER ANY EXTERNAL MIRROR TO [Fabric_Service_Account];

    2. Please Export the .bacpac.

    3.Re-grant permissions after export:
    GRANT SELECT, ALTER ANY EXTERNAL MIRROR TO [Fabric_Service_Account];
