FabricIQ

The Fabric IQ connector allows Power OMNI agents to use Microsoft Fabric resources through the MCP (Model Context Protocol).

Before configuring the Fabric IQ connector, complete the steps described in the Foundry User Permission documentation. This permission is required so users can use the Fabric IQ agent through Power OMNI.

With this connector, agents can query business information using natural language through resources provided by Microsoft Fabric IQ, including:

• Data Agent

• Power BI Semantic Model

• Ontology

The connector creates a bridge between the Power OMNI agent and Fabric resources, allowing the model to use structured data to answer questions, generate analysis, and support users in decision-making processes.

Microsoft Fabric IQ is currently in preview.

How it works

The Fabric IQ usage flow in Power OMNI:

Step	Description
Create connector	Configures access to the Microsoft Fabric IQ resource.
Select Fabric item	Defines which resource will be used: Data Agent, Semantic Model, or Ontology.
Connect to agent	Makes the connector available for agent usage.
Run queries	The agent uses MCP to query information from Fabric.

The connector can be used directly by the agent.

Using a Toolbox is optional and can be adopted only when there is a need to organize multiple resources, such as connectors, tools, and Skills.

Accessing the Connectors menu

In the Power OMNI Administration Portal:

1

Access Artifacts

2

Select Connectors

3

Click Create

Creating a Fabric IQ Connector

Connector Type

Select Fabric IQ Connector.

After selecting this option, the specific Microsoft Fabric configuration fields will be displayed.

Project

Select the Microsoft Foundry project where the connector will be created.

Name

Enter a name to identify the connector.

Name	Purpose
fabric-sales	Sales-related queries
fabric-finance	Financial queries
fabric-customers	Customer information

Description

The description informs the agent when this connector should be used.

A clear description improves the identification of the correct moment to use the tool.

Example:

Queries sales, revenue, and customer information available in Microsoft Fabric.

Avoid generic descriptions:

Fabric Connector

Fabric Item Type

Fabric IQ allows connecting different types of resources.

Type	Description
Data Agent	Data agent created in Microsoft Fabric
Ontology	Fabric entities and relationship structure
Power BI Semantic Model	Power BI semantic model

Connection Configuration

When configuring the connection, there are two options:

Import Existing Connection

Uses a connection previously created in the project.

Recommended when multiple connectors need to share the same configuration.

Create New Connection

Creates a new authentication configuration.

Example:

fabric-sales-prod

Authentication Methods

User Entra ID Token

Uses the authenticated user's token from Power OMNI.

This method respects existing access controls configured in Fabric.

OAuth2 (Custom Entra App)

Allows authentication using an application registered in Microsoft Entra.

This option is currently under implementation in Power OMNI.

When available, the following fields will be required:

Field	Description
Tenant ID	Microsoft Entra tenant identifier
Client ID	Registered application identifier
Client Secret	Application secret

Approval Policy

Defines whether an execution using the connector requires approval.

Never (automatic execution)

The agent executes calls automatically.

Always require approval

The user must approve before execution.

Connect the Connector to the Agent

After creating the connector:

1

Access Artifacts > Agents

2

Create or edit an agent

3

Access the agent relationships

4

Select the Fabric IQ connector

5

Save the changes

The agent can use Fabric IQ whenever it identifies that the request depends on information provided by the connector.

Optional Toolbox Usage

Fabric IQ does not require a Toolbox to work.

A Toolbox can be used when there is a need to organize different resources into a single group.

Toolbox	Resources
Commercial Analysis	Fabric IQ + Web Search + Skills
Customer Service	SharePoint + Fabric IQ + APIs

Current Limitations

• Microsoft Fabric IQ is currently in preview.

• OAuth2 authentication using a custom Entra application is under implementation in Power OMNI.

• Features and behaviors may change during the preview period.

Troubleshooting

The agent does not use Fabric IQ

Check:

• the connector was linked to the agent;

• the changes were saved;

• the question is related to the configured Fabric resource;

• the user has permission in Fabric.

Permission Error

Check:

• access to the Fabric workspace;

• Data Agent publication status;

• Semantic Model permissions;

• Ontology permissions.

The connector cannot access the Fabric item

Confirm:

• the workspace is correct;

• the Fabric item exists;

• the connection was configured correctly;

• the user has access to the resource.
