I am trying to find more details of the new 'Metrics Layer' introduced at the Fabric Conference last week and discussed here:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-fabric/blog/2024/03/26/announcements-from-the-microsoft-fa...
I sat in on a session and it seemed pretty cool. You could search for 'metrics'..basically measures and re-use them across PowerBi reports.
I don't see it on any of the road maps mentioned here...am I blind?

Are there any more details/timelines published anywhere?
Hi,
Does anyone faced issue while creating the new Metric Set Layer Feature which is currently in preview as discussed in the video: Introducing the Metrics Layer in #MicrosoftFabric with Carly Newsome (youtube.com)
When i tried creating it just showed "unable to create this metric set", did anyone faced same issue?
please let me know if there is any solution.
Kratos BI did a video on it with the PM Introducing the Metrics Layer in #MicrosoftFabric with Carly Newsome (youtube.com)
@dhorrall I was there too and found this post when searching for information, which I also cannot find.
However, I was keeping notes, so I'll copy them here verbatim. Also, the person to watch on this is Patrick Baumgartner: https://azuredataconf.com/?utm_campaign=clt_ua_ln_o_el_fabric-conf_global_webvisit_28-02-24&utm_cont...
Metric Sets
Great metdata so things can be endorsed
And know what the best data to trust and reuse.

Can even set the scope of the metric -- cool!!
Can even use it in a Spark Notebook or even in SQL??
Can even import and join in these metric sets into my model…. Woah.
Hi @dhorrall
My suggestions are as follows:
You can keep an eye on this document for subsequent updates,
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/release-plan/
and we have the Fabric forum where you can go to find more specialized help.

Power BI Tips had last week two different sessions on the metrics layer:
[1] Explicit Measures Ep. 236: Metrics Hub, Hot New Feature with Carly Newsome

[2] Introducing Fabric Metrics Layer / Power Metrics Hub [also with Carly Newsome]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3Owp2DSj0A
I tried to consolidate the ideas into a blog post:
SQL Troubles: Microsoft Fabric: The Metrics Layer [new feature] (sql-troubles.blogspot.com)
Best regards,

Doesn't really help answer my question since I already posted the link to the 'release plan' in my original post which does not contain any mention of the 'metrics layer' I am asking about.
