Learn about the Microsoft Fabric permission model, and gain practical insight into different strategies for granting your users the exact right amount of access for their needs.
Confused about where and how to grant your platform users the right access to Items and Data in Fabric? You're not alone.
The security model of Fabric allows for granting access on both Workspaces, Items, Compute and Data-level, raising questions like:
- Where should I grant each user type access?
- Should End-Users be granted workspace permissions at all?
- Does Build-permissions compromise Row Level Security?
- Is it true that Row Level Security breaks DirectLake, and how do I fix that?
The answers are found in the intersection between your platform ambitions and your governance strategy.
Join this session for a live demonstration of several different options for governing your Accesses and Permissions in Fabric.
