Helper Iend user UI in notebook
Helper IThe need to create user-friendly forms for end users is to integrate data update functions. For example, allowing them to update thresholds, etc. Offering this directly in Microsoft Fabric would allow us to avoid other application infrastructure. In addition, there are a lot of users who ask us: "can we update data with Power BI". Many people are looking for an easy way to update data in Power BI. ipwydgets is definitely not a library allowing us to data a user-friendly interface, it feels like the 80s.

Data modification in Power BI (aka "Data Write Back") has been a sore spot for years. Technically you should not write into a downstream system (you should write into the system that feeds Power BI) but there are ways to make that process work seamlessly - for example by first modifying the sematic model (for good UX) and then in the background sync the change with the data source.
As for the notebooks - are you sure you want to expose that part of the process to end users?

No, this is not data that is necessarily subject to return to the source systems. In most cases, this is data that is strictly useful for data analysis. In addition, third-party applications are often used in SaaS mode and it is not possible to add data to the source system.
The idea is to add additional analysis data at the warehouse level to enable rich and dynamic BI solutions.
Similarly, the idea is that the data specialist team can do the work with data world technologies (Python) without needing to have knowledge of C# development for example.
