Mirror Database Update event

Hi ,
I want to trigger events based on data updated in mirror db. The mirror db is azure sql db. Is it possible to trigger pipelines/notebook as soon as data updates in mirrored db in fabric?

Hi @DiKi-I

 

Mirrored databases should be stored as Delta files in OneLake. 

You should be able to use Activator to create a OneLake event trigger to watch for those files being created.

Hi @DiKi-I

 

You should be able to do this with an event-driven pattern: when mirroring writes changes into OneLake as Delta files, you trigger a pipeline as soon as new files land. Microsoft confirms that mirrored data is stored as Delta Parquet in OneLake (Mirroring overview, What is Mirroring in Fabric?). Fabric Data Factory supports event triggers on file arrival in OneLake (Data pipelines event triggers; see also the tutorial that sets up a pipeline that runs when a new file lands in OneLake: Build event-driven data pipelines).
