Microsoft Fabric

Connects to a Fabric Warehouse or Lakehouse SQL analytics endpoint over the same protocol as SQL Server, on port 1433. Entra ID authentication only — Fabric does not support SQL authentication.

  • Host: the SQL connection string host from the Fabric item's Settings → SQL endpoint page, for example workspace.datawarehouse.fabric.microsoft.com
  • Database: the Warehouse or Lakehouse name (its "Initial Catalog")
  • Prerequisites: the Fabric tenant setting "Service principals can use Fabric APIs" must be enabled, and the service principal needs Contributor (or an equivalent role) on the workspace or the specific item

Authentication

Default port: 1433 - Driver: dbc install mssql

azure_ad_service_principal Username (Entra ID application (client) ID), Password (Client secret)
azure_ad_managed_identity Username (Client ID of a user-assigned identity (optional — omit for system-assigned))
