Any way to fetch how much Capacity Units being utilized?

Hi everyone,

 

We are trying for a workaround w.r.t Fabric Throttling Policy by analyzing how much CUs is being used for an export report request. Is there any way like using an API to get the same? Maybe something that is provided by Fabric Metrics app?

 

Thanks for the help!

You will know it after the fact (when the activity completed).  We have a ticket open with Microsoft to get better visibility to heavy activities that are in flight and about to hit the CU stash.

Hi @alohaes ,

 

The Microsoft Fabric Capacity Metrics app's compute page provides an overview of your capacity's performance.

It only has metrics about Capacity Units (CU) processing time in seconds. and no explicit metrics about capacity utilization for the time being.

As @lbendlin said,You can pay attention to the subsequent progress about this feature.

 

Best regards.
