Announcing Public Preview of the “Share” Feature for Fabric AI Skill

The Share capability for Fabric AI Skill is now in public preview. This feature enables AI Skill creators to share their AI Skill with colleagues, allowing them to consume the AI Skill and gain valuable insights from the data.

How Sharing Works
Once you have created and validated the effectiveness of your AI Skill, you can first publish it and then share it with your team or colleagues who want to gain insights from the data. The default ‘Share’ capability allows others to simply query the published version of the AI Skill, enabling them to ask questions and receive responses. This simplifies how team members can consume the AI Skill for Q&A, helping them leverage data insights for informed decision-making. Beyond querying, you can also share your AI Skill with additional permissions:

  • Co-create (Edit and view details): Collaborate with colleagues by inviting them to co-develop the AI Skill.
  • View Configuration (View details): You can grant viewing access to the AI Skill’s configuration settings, allowing others to understand its setup without making any changes.

These flexible sharing options empower you to control how your AI Skill is used and developed, making it a valuable tool for collaboration and data-driven insights. Additionally, please note that when sharing the AI Skill, you also need to share access to the underlying data it uses. The AI Skill honors all user permissions to the data, including Row-Level Security (RLS) and Column-Level Security (CLS). These flexible sharing options empower you to control how your AI Skill is used and developed, making it a valuable tool for collaboration and data-driven insights.

Enhanced Publishing Experience
To further support your work, when you publish your AI Skill, you can now include a description that outlines its purpose and functionality. This description will help users understand what your AI Skill does, making it easier for colleagues to leverage it effectively for their data queries.

Streamlined Version Management
Additionally, we have introduced flexible version management. After publishing the AI Skill, you can switch between the published version and the current version you are developing. This allows you to run the same set of questions on both versions, facilitating performance comparisons and providing insights into how your updates impact the AI Skill’s performance.

More Ways to Use AI Skill
We are actively working on additional ways for you to leverage AI Skill across different platforms. Soon, you’ll be able to integrate AI Skill with Microsoft Copilot Studio, Microsoft Azure AI Studio, and more, providing even greater flexibility and accessibility to consume AI Skill within the Microsoft ecosystem.

We’re also developing ways for you to use AI Skill within your custom applications, even those outside of Microsoft ecosystem. These future integrations will allow you to seamlessly incorporate AI Skill into your existing workflows, unlocking new possibilities for customized and context-specific AI experiences.

We encourage you to explore AI Skill and let us know what you think. You can learn more about AI Skill here and you can fill up this form to let us know how else you envision to use AI Skill.
