Helper IVerror in Fabric Capacity Metrics
Hey there!
The Fabric Trial does not include premium capacity features, so you should check if your trial includes capacity monitoring. If not, you won’t be able to see CUs and may need to upgrade to a paid Fabric capacity?
Hope this helps!
Cheerio,
Zoe 😁😁

Thank you freginier for your prompt response.
Thank you for contacting the Microsoft Fabric community. We understand that you are encountering an issue with Fabric Capacity Metrics.From the information provided, it seems that the Fabric Trial version you are using does not include certain premium capacity features, such as monitoring Capacity Units (CUs). Typically, Fabric Trial versions do not support capacity monitoring, which may explain why you cannot access these metrics.To address this issue, we suggest upgrading to a paid Fabric capacity. This will grant you access to a full range of monitoring and analytics features, including the ability to view CUs through the Fabric Capacity Metric.

Hi pennyhoho117
Since the Fabric Trial version does not support visibility of Capacity Units (CUs) using the Microsoft Fabric Capacity Metrics App, monitoring CU consumption directly during the trial period is not possible.However, if you are planning to purchase a Fabric license based on CUs, we recommend considering the following factors to estimate the appropriate capacity:
- Number of users accessing Fabric services (Data Engineering, Data Science, Data Factory, Power BI).
- Type of workloads (ETL processing, AI/ML workloads, large-scale data transformation, reporting & analytics).
- Expected concurrency (simultaneous users or processes) to estimate the required Fabric capacity.
For a better understanding of Fabric capacity requirements, please refer to the following Microsoft documentation:
