Good morning
Greetings to all.
Microsoft Fabric was recently added to the organization and I have been exploring the service in order to get the most out of it.
I want to use datamart and lakehouse service, but for now I have the following question:
How can I write the table in the tables section.
I add the simple code that I am using, if you wish you can replicate it, it is an open government data page.
As you can see, I am using the R language to read the API, but for now I cannot save this table. If anyone can help me, thanks in advance.
Additionally, if you know of resources where I can learn to use these new resources (datamart, lakehouse, pipeline...), I would greatly appreciate it.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @jcamilo1985 - Thanks for using Fabric Community,
As I understand you are very new to fabric and sparkR, would like to learn explore things on it.
I am sharing few links that helps you get more insights with fabric and sparkR.

I was able to create a table in lakehouse using below code, attached screenshot for reference -
# tableName <- "<catalog-name>.<schema-name>.<table-name>"
tableName <- "gopi_lake_house.abc"
data <- list(
list(1L, "Raymond", "green", "apple"),
list(2L, "Loretta", "purple", "grape"),
list(3L, "Wayne", "yellow", "banana")
)
schema <- structType(
structField("id", "integer"),
structField("name", "string"),
structField("color", "string"),
structField("fruit", "string")
)
df <- createDataFrame(
data = data,
schema = schema
)
saveAsTable(
df = df,
tableName = tableName
)
# Verify that the table was successfully saved by
# displaying the table's contents.
display(sql(paste0("SELECT * FROM ", tableName)))
Hope this helps your query. Happy Learning.!
If you want to use an easier no code solution for a simple data ingestion, you will find pipelines a much better choice. You can start creating a pipeline, and click on copy data, and it should be pretty straight forward to figure out the rest of the steps. If you still get stuck refer this tutorial https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/data-factory/tutorial-end-to-end-pipeline
