How to deploy OrgApp and OrgAppAudience from one workspace to another workspace using GitHub Actions
Hi Team - I was looking to achieve the CI/CD for OrgApp and OrgAppAudience. I have a workspace-Dev which is Git Integrated and has the OrgApp and OrgAppAudience in below structure format. Sales Results.OrgApp ├── .platform ├── definition └── .children └── Sales Results.OrgAppAudience ├── .platform └── definition I'm trying with to achieve this deployment automation with GitHub actions. Steps performed are 1. Install fabric-cli 2. Login using Managed Identoty to fabric CLI 3. Deploy using fab deploy with config file with Items in scope as "OrgApp" and "OrgAppAudience" Observation Error - It looks the Fabcric CLI does not support this type of deployment. Please let me know the possibilities to achieve this deployment using GitHub actions only. FAQ on the Fabric User Groups
[PBIUG Italy - RT] PBI Explorer Showcase
PBI Explorer lets you take full ownership of your Power BI reports It gives you a code-first view of your PBIX/PBIP reports. All visual properties, settings, and relationships are fully exposed in Tabular Editor style. It Explorer provides a git-like diff view between two reports, highlighting what's been modified or removed and it provides a view of all elements from the data model used in the report. You can see all report features that are difficult to inspect visually (like bookmarks, filters, etc). Mathias is one of the creators of PBI Explorer and he will guide us through it.
Workspace Git Sync Error - Unable to initialize your workspace
I currently cannot sync from git into our central DEV-workspace anymore. I have tryed syncing the git-branch into a different workspace and it works. When trying to sync the DEV-workspace, I instantly get an error "Unable to initialize your workspace". Syncing is not even tried. Please note that to fix a syncing error, we already detached and reattached the git-branch from the workspace.
Rayfin/Fabric Apps: support for mapping @entity() to a non-dbo SQL schema
Hello, We are developing a Microsoft Fabric App using Fabric Apps / Rayfin SDK version 1.33.1. We need to organize the physical SQL tables by application module using custom schemas, for example: - schema_1.table_1 - schema_2.table_1 However, the current Rayfin code-first generation appears to use the default dbo schema and generates unqualified table sources. We would like to confirm whether Rayfin supports mapping an @entity() to a table in a non-dbo schema. Is using a non-dbo SQL schema supported by Rayfin/Fabric Apps? If supported, what is the exact decorator, configuration, or rayfin.yml syntax? Regards,Refresh SQL Endpoint activity is not saving Workspace ID in pipeline JSON
Hi Team, I'm facing an issue with the Refresh SQL Endpoint (Preview) activity in Microsoft Fabric Data Pipelines. Previously, when this activity was added to a pipeline, the generated pipeline JSON included the WorkspaceId associated with the selected workspace. However, with the current implementation, although the UI still requires selecting a Workspace, the generated JSON no longer contains any WorkspaceId property. For example, the activity is configured in the UI with: Connection: FABRIC_SQLENDPOINT Workspace: WS_DEV_ABC SQL Endpoint: LH_ABC However, the generated JSON only contains: There is no WorkspaceId or equivalent workspace reference present in the JSON. This becomes a problem when using Git integration and CI/CD. During our pull request from a feature branch to the Dev branch, update workspace from git fails with below error within workspace : Cluster URI https://wabi-us-north-central-l-primary-redirect.analysis.windows.net/ Activity ID xxxxxx-3e44-4124-b273-xxxxxxxx Request ID xxxxxx-94e3-c4a6-1cfd-xxxxxxxxx Workload Error Code RequestValidationFailed Workload Error Message An internal error happened due to failed runtime assertion: ActivityName RefreshSqlEndpoint contains an invalid WorkspaceId <null>..

Could someone please confirm: Is the removal of WorkspaceId from the pipeline JSON an intentional product change? If so, how is the deployment service expected to resolve the workspace during Git-based deployments? Is this a known issue with the Refresh SQL Endpoint (Preview) activity? Is there any recommended workaround until this is resolved? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Learning migrating through Event-Driven Data Pipeline
Sharing my learning with the community and looking forward to your feedback and suggestions. Building an Event-Driven Data Pipeline in Microsoft Fabric Today I worked on a hands-on scenario to understand how a change in an ADLS Gen2 CSV file can automatically trigger data processing and load transformed data into a Fabric Warehouse. Complete Pipeline Flow ADLS Gen2 Storage ↓ CSV Created / Modified ↓ Azure Blob Storage Event ↓ Fabric Eventstream ↓ Event-Based Trigger ↓ Fabric Pipeline ↓ Copy Data ↓ Fabric Warehouse – Employee ↓ SQL / Dataflow Transformation ↓ GROUP BY EmployeeID, EmployeeName + SUM(Salary) ↓ Warehouse – emp_aggregated Key Learnings • Understanding event-driven pipeline execution in Microsoft Fabric • Using Azure Blob Storage events with ADLS Gen2 • Connecting storage events with Fabric Eventstream • Triggering a Fabric pipeline based on source file changes • Loading data into Fabric Warehouse using Copy Data • Applying transformations using SQL / Dataflow Gen2 • Creating aggregated business-ready tables • Exploring dynamic content and activity outputs for reusable pipelines This was a great hands-on exercise to understand how different Fabric components work together to build an automated data pipeline.Prepping for DP-700 in ~18 days — what should I prioritize, and where?
I'm sitting the DP-700 exam in about two and a half weeks. I've already been through Aleksi Partanen's 11-hour video course and hold DP-600, so I have the Fabric fundamentals down — workspaces, OneLake, general security concepts, etc. I've also worked through the official Microsoft Learn paths for Ingest Data, Implement a Lakehouse, and Real-Time Intelligence, plus the official DP-700 study guide as my checklist. What I'm trying to figure out is where the real gaps are likely to be for someone in my position, and which resources are actually worth the time versus which ones just repeat what a DP-600 holder already knows. A few specific things I'd love input on: Which parts of the exam tend to catch DP-600 holders off guard — is it mostly the streaming/Real-Time Intelligence side, the monitoring and optimization domain, or something else entirely? For anyone who's taken it recently: were there topics that came up on the exam that aren't well covered by the official Learn paths above? Any specific resource — a course, blog, practice test, or lab — that made a real difference for you beyond the standard Learn paths? Happy to hear about paid resources too if they were worth it. Any recommendations on how much weight to put on hands-on PySpark/KQL practice versus reading — did the exam lean more toward code recognition or conceptual/scenario questions? Appreciate any pointers, especially from people who've taken it in the last month or two given the exam content gets refreshed periodically.Fabric CICD Semantic model autobinding feature workspaces
Hi all! Our team has a full CI/CD pipeline in ADO using fabric-cicd, working with Reports, Semantic Models, and Paginated Reports. Each developer has one persistent personal Dev workspace, connected via git to whichever branch they're working on. Reports and Semantic Models rebind fine when someone switches their workspace to a different branch; no issue there, since they're currently colocated in the same workspace and use byPath references. The pain today is specifically Paginated Reports: a .rdl file hardcodes its data source as an XMLA connection string pointing at a specific semantic-model GUID in a specific workspace. That connection isn't part of Fabric's git sync at all, so when a reviewer checks out someone else's branch, everything else rebinds correctly except the paginated report: it's still silently pointing at the original author's workspace. We use fabric-cicd 1.2's native find_replace parameterization for Test/Prod deployment, and that works great, but it only fires at deploy time against a fixed environment in parameter.yml, with no concept of "whichever developer is reviewing this branch right now." So it doesn't help at the branch-switch/review stage. We currently work around it with a separate pipeline that manually re-patches the .rdl connection via the Power BI Imports API, but someone has to remember to run it. We're planning to eventually split Semantic Models into their own dedicated workspace, separate from Reports. Once that happens, Report→Semantic Model references switch from byPath (same workspace, auto-rebinds) to byConnection, which is the same as our current .rdl problem, except it'd then apply to ordinary Reports too, not just paginated ones. So, has anyone solved automatic re-pointing of byConnection references (paginated report or otherwise) on branch checkout/review, or dealt with this at scale after splitting Semantic Models into their own workspace? Curious whether there's something we're missing. Thanks!The Fabric Blueprint: Architecting Workspaces for Enterprise Success
