Fabric granular permission to use items
My team is running a Fabric POC and we are interested to now about the ability to allow users to create or use Fabric items.
For example in Azzure we can allow user to use certain products independently. A data analyst have access to ML studio but not access to Synapse.
In Fabric we want to allow some users to use notebooks but not to create pipelines and dataflows. We also want to allow some users to access all items and have the ability to create and edit products.
Cheers,
Ian

I don't think that is possible.
I think you can restrict which users can create Fabric items by using security groups.
But I don't think you can restrict permission to create only some Fabric items but not all Fabric items. I think if a user has permission to create Fabric items, they can create all kinds of Fabric items.

We are looking into Fabric, but the security controls we have on other products to have the same level with Fabric the costs are way too high. Also the granular permission to use items are not inline with what we need.

Not related to OP's question, just a comment on this quote:
"I think you can restrict which users can create Fabric items by using security groups."
Note that Capacity admins can override the Tenant settings.
So anyone who can create a new Fabric capacity in Azure, or is already a capacity admin of an existing capacity, can for example choose to let all users in the organization create Fabric items using that capacity.

I haven't tried this, but by reading the docs this seems to be the case.

Currently we give access to some users in ML studio. However only data engineers access Synapse and Data factory and can build organisational assets.
Data analysts and Machine learning engineers than consume those datasets. If they need to write back than a data enginner works alongside to build the pipelines.
