With Fabric Capacity can we allocate Workspaces with a pre-determined capacity?

A person can consume too much Fabric capacity.  Is there a way to restrict capacity usage per Workspace?  Thanks

Hi @ajferrara ,

Thanks for @Kaviraj11  sharing, I have information that needs to be added.

Throttling occurs when a tenant’s capacity consumes more capacity resources than it has purchased. Too much throttling can result in a degraded end-user experience. A Fabric tenant can create multiple capacities and assign workspaces to a specific capacity for billing and sizing.

Workspaces can be assigned to a Premium capacity in the Power BI Admin portal or, for a workspace, in the Workspace pane.

Capacity Admins, as well as Global Administrators or Power BI service administrators, can bulk assign workspaces in the Power BI Admin portal.

Hi, If i understood your question correctly, you wanted to give limited capacity of the total fabric capacity to a workspace right? If that's the case, currently it doesn't have the features or ability to restrict the capacity
