What problem does it solve?
Fabric Data Agents enable secure, read-only access to OneLake data sources from conversational AI in Microsoft Fabric. They provide a guided, governance-aware path to connect lakehouses, warehouses, semantic models, and KQL sources to an agent that can answer questions without exposing raw data or writing permissions.
Core Features & Use Cases
- GA Data Agent in Fabric that reads from OneLake and enforces read-only access.
- Attach up to five data sources per agent and craft per-source instructions and few-shots to tailor queries.
- Use REST API or fabric-data-agent-sdk for programmatic provisioning and chat interactions across Fabric portals and Notebook environments.
- Supports lakehouse, warehouse, Power BI semantic models, and KQL databases; Purview governance and tenant settings considerations are included.
- Share agents with others with per-user permissions while data permissions still control results.
Quick Start
Create a Fabric data agent named your-agent and attach at least one OneLake data source, then start conversing with it in the Fabric workspace.
