(Livestream Replay) Introduction to Fabric Studio - with Gerhard Brueckl

DESCRIPTION 📄

In this session I will give you an introduction to the Visual Studio Code extension "Fabric Studio" which allows you to manage your Fabric environment directly from within VSCode. Leveraging the Fabric REST APIs you can easily browse through Fabric items and run various tasks. For not so common API calls there is also the ability to user VSCode notebooks offering intelli-sense and auto-complete from all existing API calls. It further allows you to modify existing items like semantic models, notebooks, pipelines, etc. in the VSCode IDE and publish your changes back to the Fabric service. It also features a OneLake browser to inspect the output of your operations.
