Helper IFabric Deployment pipeline wont show differences between two workspace
Hi,
We are in the midst of preparing to deploy our latest changes from our INT workspace to our PROD workspace. We changed our branch from testing to release yesterday, got an error midway but we are able resolve it and update the workspace with our new change.
Now, a weird problem is happening to our deployment pipeline, where we cant view any comparison between items in INT workspace and PROD workspace. We tested on our other workspace and pipeline, it works fine. Anyone knows how to solve this issue?
It shows yellow icon of saying there is changes made compared to previous deployment, but no button for comparison show up
Hi Kei88
This usually means the pipeline sees a change but can’t line up the items to show the comparison. It often happens when:
-
The item type isn’t supported (comparison works only for datasets, reports, and dataflows).
-
The item was renamed or re-published, so it now has a different ID.
-
Changing branches or overwriting items changed the metadata, making Fabric treat it as new.
-
You don’t have Contributor rights on both stages.
Check both your INT and PROD workspaces to make sure the items are the same and have the same ID (you can see this in the item’s URL). Also confirm the item type is supported. Try making a small edit to a supported report or dataset to see if the compare button appears.
If everything matches but the button is still missing, it’s likely a Fabric issue. In that case, log a support ticket with Microsoft and include the workspace IDs, pipeline name, and deployment time so they can investigate.
