What’s new with Fabric Activator?
Fabric Activator is a powerful no-code solution designed for rapid event detection and response. It continuously monitors data sources for patterns or conditions and instantly triggers the right actions—keeping workflows fast and seamless. With Fabric Activator, you can automatically execute actions or send alerts whenever specific data conditions are met, ensuring timely and efficient operations.
What’s New?
- You can now automate business logic by running User data functions (Preview*) and Spark job definition as an action when your data changes.
- Access advanced actions for automation in Real-time hub (coming soon in Real-time dashboard, Eventhouse, and KQL Queryset), including:
- Pass parameter values to Functions, Spark job definitions, Pipeline, and Notebook.
- Create custom action (Power Automate workflow) that you can reuse across Activator rules.
- Send Teams message to group chats and channels.
- Customize email and Teams recipients and messages.
*Lifecycle management for Activator/User data function integration will be available soon by mid-December.
How it Works
You can access this feature by creating an Activator item or access it in embedded experience like in Real-Time hub (coming soon in Real-Time dashboard, Eventhouse, and KQL Queryset).
For example, in Real-Time Hub, the ‘Set alert’ button is visible when browsing data sources like Azure events, Fabric events, or Eventstream.
Selecting ‘Set alert’ will open a side pane where you can set up conditions and actions, including notifications, Fabric activities, and custom action. By creating the rule, you can automate your business process leveraging Activator.
