Microsoft Fabric Capacity Management⚓︎

PowerBI Robots supports Microsoft Fabric. To use it, you must authenticate with a Service Principal.

Steps to follow:

Add PowerBI Robots as a capacity administrator in Microsoft Fabric

  • To allow PowerBI Robots to manage your Microsoft Fabric capacity, you must add your own Azure App as a capacity administrator in Microsoft Fabric through the Azure Portal. In addition, you must assign your Azure App the Contributor role on the corresponding resource.

Configure Microsoft Fabric in the PowerBI Robots Agent

Under Microsoft Power BI Capacity Management, choose Fabric provider and fill in the required Microsoft Fabric fields and authenticate using the Service Principal option.

Enable Microsoft Fabric capacity management in your Playlist

Under the General tab of the playlist configuration, enable the Power BI Embedded management option. With this option enabled, PowerBI Robots will automatically resume the Microsoft Fabric capacity before running the playlist and pause it afterward.
