Invoke Pipeline Returns "Could not found the requested item"

[BriefStop]

I'm having issues with the Invoke Pipeline(Preview) activity where I am getting the error {"requestId":"e9e54d07-8d30-4de4-b3f4-3be3ad15a476","errorCode":"ItemNotFound","message":"Could not found the requested item"}

To test this issue, I set up a:

1. A pipeline with the only activity in it being Invoke Pipeline(Preview)
   1. No parameters - The original pipeline I set up had parameters and I was getting the same error code so I tried to remove it to see if it was a parameter issue
2. A child pipeline with the only activity in it to Get Metadata for a table in a lakehouse
   1. No parameters
   2. This pipeline will successfully run on its own

When I run #1 I get the error message {"requestId":"e9e54d07-8d30-4de4-b3f4-3be3ad15a476","errorCode":"ItemNotFound","message":"Could not found the requested item"} however I'm not sure why the Item would not be found since I was able to specify it. I am attaching my configuration settings as screenshots to this post. Did I miss something in the Invoke Pipeline settings?

Parent Pipeline

Child Pipeline

I have this same issue.

I am trying to call sub pipelines from a master pipeline and recieve an error saying "errorCode":"ItemNotFound","message":"Could not found the requested item"

I am the owner and creator of all the pipelines both the parent master pipeline and the invoked childen pipelines

I figured out the issue, it is due to a directory issue. I was working on a client's Fabric instant using a guest external account. Fabric kept thinking that I was in my own Fabric environment instead of the client's which and pipeline would have been missing from my own environment.

The solution I found was having my client set up a Fabric pipeline connection instead of using my own and selecting it as the first step in the invoke pipeline activity.

The issue is still relevant and has cost me several hours of troubleshooting over the past few days until I came across this article. Many thanks for the solution, but the problem really should be fixed by now. It just shouldn’t happen. When I access it with a guest account, I get this error message even though I have admin access. Please fix this, Microsoft.

Thank you, I am also developing as a guest in a client enviroment so this should fix it. Thanks for the quick response

Hi @BriefStop ,

Here are some of my personal thoughts on your question:

1. I noticed on your first screenshot that it says “Currently Pipeline return values is only supported with ADF & Synapse pipelines. To fetch pipeline return value for To fetch pipeline return value for fabric pipelines, please use invoke Pipeline(Legacy)”. This indicates that this feature is not supported in the current Fabric pipeline. So I think you can either use ADF or Synapse.

2. I also think you need to verify that the account running the pipeline has the necessary permissions to access the parent and child pipelines. Make sure that the resources (e.g. the table at the lake house) are available and accessible while the pipeline is running.
