Ontology: cannot add properties to relationship types
Hi all, I've been building a knowledge-graph project using Fabric's Graph and Ontology (preview), and ran into a limitation: Ontology currently lets you define properties on entity types, but not on relationship types. (I even tried adding edge properties directly on the underlying Graph of the Ontology, not just through the Ontology definition, but that didn't work either. But if I do it just on a Graph which is not tied to an Ontology, everything works.) I'd really like to keep using Ontology specifically, not just fall back to a plain Graph without Ontology. So I'm hoping to understand if this is fixable rather than being told to skip Ontology altogether. A few questions: 1. Is this a known/tracked limitation? 2. Is there a fix planned for it? 3. Is there a recommended way to model relationship properties in the meantime? I'm planning to talk about my project publicly, so I'd like to understand if this is expected to change soon or if I should plan around it. Thanks for any info you can share.
Fabric IQ Ontology item for SaaS companies
Hello there Fabricators! I am starting to experiment with the Ontology item which sounds great on paper but I hit obsticles when it comes to defining the entities. The ontology demo that was presented at Microsoft Ignite was great, but as a data analyst in an SaaS company, i have a hard time to define our entities. In the demo example the business was aviation and airport related and the definition of the entities was quite straightforward, but for an SaaS company that sells licenses to customers with a valid from and valid to date the entity modeling is not so straightforward to me (not to mention that we have several types of licenses to several editions of our product and the customer can add or remove licenses at will...). Is there anyone out there who is currently trying to create the ontology for a license based SaaS company? If yes, it would be great to hear your thoughts, strategies and things you learned so far that can help me to create an ontology that can support a Data Agent and deliver trustworthy and consistent answers to the users. Please feel free to ask questions or add your two-cents to the topic 🙂
