Enable Direct Addition of Fabric Data Agents to Microsoft 365 Copilot
Please enable users to add and invoke a Fabric Data Agent directly as a specialized agent in a Microsoft 365 Copilot multi-agent solution. In our current setup, we can’t add a Fabric Data Agent directly to M365 Copilot, so we connect to it through Fabric IQ Data MCP. This approach raises a concern that we need to separately verify whether requests are routed to and handled by the intended Fabric Data Agent. That additional validation makes configuring and testing the multi-agent solution more complex. We request the ability to select and add a Fabric Data Agent directly as a subagent in the M365 Copilot multi-agent configuration, allowing the parent agent to delegate tasks to it directly. This would reduce the additional validation required for the intermediate MCP connection and make the multi-agent setup simpler and more transparent. This request is not a report of a defect in Fabric IQ Data MCP; it is a request for direct Fabric Data Agent integration in M365 Copilot. We also request that the Fabric Data Agent’s existing authentication, data-access permissions, and security policies continue to be enforced when using this direct integration.

Disable App Sharing Notification to Audience
Can we have the option to turn off the notification when we add people to an audience in Power BI Apps? Sometimes, I want to share an app with a wider group of people, but I don't want to notify all of them. I just want to make sure they can access the app when they need to. We've been trying to get viewers in our organization out of workspaces, but we've been having to give viewer access to workspaces as a workaround when we are sharing with a large group.
A new look and new capabilities in the Capacity Metrics App (Preview)
As announced at FabCon 2026 in Barcelona, we're releasing meaningful enhancements to the Capacity Metrics app in preview, designed to accelerate time to insight. This includes new and enhanced visuals and metrics across the health, compute, and storage pages—alongside improved navigation and a refreshed user interface design. A new item details page builds on the existing item history page, providing key insights for individual items running on the capacity. The aim is to support key user journeys, including: Identifying issues as they happen. Reviewing issues that have occurred over the last two weeks. Identifying risks before they result in throttling. Improved experiences An admin can now land on the health page and quickly identify capacities most in need of review. New metrics introduce easily understandable concepts like percentage of time spent in throttling, which can be compared across capacities and time periods. zation, and various types of throttling – providing the capacity admin a view across capacities to help them keep operations smooth. Once a capacity is identified for further review, the new compute page provides rich detail on the health state of the capacity and the biggest items impacting the capacity for the selected period. Key new visuals include: An updated utilization graph which expresses capacity unit (CU) consumption in CU seconds rather than a percentage, making it easy to see if your capacity has been scaled up or down, while also showing the current throttling state through conditional formatting. A new heat map visual that shows the capacities most utilized/overutilized state for each hour, making it easy to spot daily or hourly patterns. A new CU consumption table, which shows the item impacting the time window being reviewed (to a granularity of 1 hour). The visual shows smoothed CU consumption, meaning this truly reflects the highest impact items for the time being reviewed. on, all within a specified date range. Once an item is identified as a possible cause of high utilization, or if the user just wants to see additional detail on the item, the new item details page provides a 14-day history. The page has been designed from the ground up to give detailed insights which were previously unavailable. One key visual is the new CU utilization chart which shows the impact the selected item had on the overall capacity. Given the new experiences include changes to the existing metrics, it is being released as a preview alongside the existing app generally available experience, allowing time for you to adapt to the new app while still having access to the existing version. When you install the new version of the app, you will see the new preview as an additional option alongside the existing generally available versions of the reports. Getting started To support adoption of the new experience, explore the following resources for each new page: Existing Fabric Capacity Metrics app users will be notified when an update is available. Select Get it from the notification to update your current installation or install the latest version in a new workspace. Alternatively, you can install the app directly from the Microsoft Marketplace. Technical documentation with embedded video guidance: Health page Compute page Storage page Item details page User journey documentation, which explains how the app can be used in different situations. We're excited to put these new capabilities into your hands and look forward to your feedback as we continue evolving the Capacity Metrics experience to help you better understand, manage, and optimize your Fabric capacities.User Interface customization - HomePage & Help and support
Hi, 1st idea: It would be great if administrators could customize the Fabric/Power BI Home page. Today, users can choose between three predefined layouts (Copilot, Simplified, and Expanded). Allowing administrators to create and publish a custom layout for all users, with embedded report pages, visuals, quick-access buttons, and other tailored content, could significantly improve the user experience and adoption of the platform. 2nd idea: It would be great if administrators could customize the Help & Support menu by adding their own entries, renaming existing ones, and changing their order. This would make it easier to promote organization-specific documentation, support contacts, training resources, and other important links directly within the Fabric/Power BI experience.
Managing Purview Access in a OneLake Security-Enabled Fabric Environment
As OneLake Security is now enabled by default for supported Lakehouse items, Purview scanning appears to work differently for Lakehouses created before and after this change. We are therefore looking for a centralized solution for managing Purview access across Fabric Lakehouses. Assigning the Contributor role to the Purview Service Principal, as recommended, is unfortunately not an option for us due to our security and governance requirements. We are looking for a solution that follows the principle of least privilege while minimizing operational overhead. Ideally, Purview should be able to access all relevant Lakehouses without requiring manual role assignments for each existing and newly created Lakehouse. Could the Product Group please advise whether a centralized approach is planned, for example: A tenant- or Fabric-level Default Reader, that can be assigned once and automatically applies to all Lakehouses. Automatic inheritance of OneLake Security permissions for new Lakehouses; Or another centrally managed mechanism that avoids per-Lakehouse configuration while maintaining read-only access?

Allow monitoring DAX queries in Activator
Please allow viewing and editing the DAX query that powers PBI alerts in Activator! This would make Activator much easier to use. It would allow for much more flexibility if Activator allowed directly viewing, setting and editing the DAX query that produces the data object to be monitored. This would allow us to include more than one column in the dataset to use in Activator (which would make it 10x more useful). It would also make it much easier to understand what data is actually being monitored, make it clearer to the user that the alert is independent of the visual, and make it possible to update alerts to target different data. We have many tools for creating effective DAX queries, including the view in PBI desktop.
Improve Report Page Navigation with an Automatic Dropdown When Tab Space Is Exhausted
Idea Description: As a Power BI developer, I frequently work on reports that contain a large number of pages. This is often necessary to support drillthrough experiences, development and testing pages, troubleshooting pages, hidden utility pages, and multiple report sections. Currently, when the number of report pages exceeds the available horizontal space, navigating between pages becomes increasingly difficult. Developers must scroll through the page tabs, making it time-consuming to locate and switch to specific pages, particularly in larger reports. I would like to suggest an enhancement to the page navigation experience in Power BI Desktop and Microsoft Fabric. When the number of page tabs exceeds the available display area, Power BI could automatically provide a dropdown menu or page selector containing all report pages. Proposed behavior: Display a page dropdown when tabs can no longer fit within the available window width. Allow developers to quickly search for or select a page from the list. Preserve the existing tab-based experience while providing a more scalable navigation option. Optionally group pages into sections or folders for even easier navigation in large reports. Benefits: Improves productivity for report developers working with complex reports. Reduces unnecessary scrolling through page tabs. Makes it easier to locate drillthrough, hidden, and development pages. Provides a more scalable and user-friendly experience for enterprise-sized reports. This enhancement would significantly improve the report development workflow and help developers navigate large Power BI reports more efficiently. Business Impact: Organizations building enterprise-scale reports often maintain dozens of report pages during development. A more efficient page navigation experience would save time, improve productivity, and reduce frustration for report authors working in Power BI Desktop and Microsoft Fabric.
Org apps - Cannot be arranged in folders and do not stay hidden
Currently, Organizational Apps (Org Apps) are displayed in the standard Apps section of the Get Apps experience, alongside regular workspace apps. For organizations managing large-scale Power BI deployments, this creates navigation and discoverability challenges. **Current Behavior:** Org Apps appear mixed with regular apps in a single list, making it difficult for end-users to distinguish and locate organizational-level content, especially in environments with dozens of apps. **Requested Behavior:** Add the ability to display Organizational Apps in a separate, dedicated section within the Get Apps experience (similar to how Featured and Recommended apps are organized separately). This would: - Improve discoverability for org-level content - Create clear visual separation between user-scoped and organization-scoped apps - Enhance the app navigation experience at scale **Business Impact:** Organizations deploying large numbers of apps (particularly during migrations and multi-tenant rollouts with 100+ apps) would benefit significantly from dedicated Org Apps visibility. This is especially valuable for external-facing platforms serving multiple client organizations, where organizational apps serve as the primary content distribution mechanism. **Suggested Implementation:** Add a new collapsible "Organizational Apps" section in the Get Apps experience that displays all Org Apps separately from regular workspace-published apps. Admins should have the option to control this visibility via tenant or workspace settings. **Workaround:** Currently unavailable.Dark Mode in Fabric UI
I would like to request that Dark Mode be added to the Fabric UI on the web. It can be quite jarring for those of us who use Dark Mode regularly to be blasted with the current UI. I saw there is a Dark Mode already in the Cosmos DB panel. Bringing that to the entire UI would make so many of us very happy and our eyeballs would thank you.
