Hey blopez11 ,

 

I am talking about any Data Connections - but, yes, those are quite annoying as well !  I just want to have ONLY the admin create Data Connections.

    Only here as part of a Fabric POC but interested to see how this progresses.  The ability to create connections is tied to the Contributor role but I would like to see a separate role for creating ANY type of connection - the sprawl of workspaces I would be fine with but once those connections are consumed it will be a nightmare to police and unpick if necessary.  Show stopper in my opinion.
