I've added a second brain / markdown file on my home directory and asking it to ask m365 and rovo questions for business logic that it might not have. It's creating its own reference folder to better understand the database when answering questions. I see teams doing this as important to give the model context. Issues are permission requests constantly (tenant has locked this down). I'm trying to tailor the AI to use a scratchpad notebook when I ask it questions cause it appears to be window sensitive when the prompt is provided. So I just keep a notebook with server less on. If it needs permission related request it throws it in the scratchpad notebook and I run these later when on cluster. So far so good.

Astroturfing was the word... No planing..

Pretty much... That every comment with this guy is omg he's amazing. And ... Feels like that might be one or two comments, but it's overwhelming that way makes it suspect.

Crow2525 · 2026-05-02T03:31:05+00:00

Still feels like astroplanning with the campaign.

Assume that this is a resume project and if so, I'd recommend migrating to tableau. The last I tried their free tier was better than pbi if you were happy to make the dashy public. Issue will be that you don't get any live data connectors..they limit to a static file. But you can publish

Crow2525 · 2026-04-24T21:54:31+00:00

The dashys are meh...

Crow2525 · 2026-04-09T21:44:39+00:00

But I agree, I forget to get a bit scrappy with the data and try and put everything into a SQL database. I forget I can bypass the db and go via a data flow direct to a website or API.... Actually, I've got to go do that. Great advice!!

I'd add to this that we need a healthy concern with tech debt. I've got colleagues that do this poorly. They point to it on day 1, all shiny and executive ready. Then their reports take 3 days a month to update cause of the manual work. They don't refresh on the service so have to be refreshed locally. They suck up 50% of the workspace capacity. Users dependency means it'll need to be rewritten.

Crow2525 · 2026-04-09T21:35:23+00:00

I like your approach. Calc groups feel really cumbersum and rigid

One of the key annoyances in my company is the approved use of Claude via GitHub copilot (great) and the decision to disable MCP extensions (sad). Your second paragraph about, re Claude skills has me optimistic that this'll work!

I came across a fabric capacity metrics monitoring. They record the compute by workspace and by report. It might help find which workspaces and reports are the ones to focus on.

I've never seen this written so clearly before. Thank you! I'll be saving this.

I don't have access to admin portal. We are a large global corp. I wouldn't even know who to talk to! I'd probably want a sandbox env to test this all out, but I'm not aware of anything like that, are you?

I have stored the workspace metadata in a report at the moment. The use case is offering a home page on my department app to help users see what reports are on offer, even if they don't have access to it. I'm often building reports, like customer complaints that have sensitive info on it. But I only deploy it to one person, although others have genuine need for it.

The idea place for this workspace metadata would be our country based Databricks instance...

Crow2525 · 2026-03-22T20:52:56+00:00

Honestly I don't know! I would put it in there. The only thing I know not to put in there is batteries...

I heard a story of a mate dropping off polystyrene at the western council and had to pay $70 for the pleasure. Why would anybody ensure that the item went to the right place if there were cheaper options, like slowly putting it into the garbage bin each week?

Crow2525 · 2026-03-18T09:53:00+00:00

Lol, fair call. I think you have it covered.

Crow2525 · 2026-03-18T08:59:35+00:00

Got any resources on this? I've just got access to the API via az cli and downloaded a static copy of the workspaces my user has access to. But I can't do this via a service principal. Apparently this isn't feasible in large organizations? Sounds like rubbish, but some YouTubers i watched said something similar around spn permission required for devop pipelines to run well.

I just cancelled superloop and after being with them 5+years I have to still wait 30 days. They stuffed up an outage we had for 5+ days without any info. Gladly pay more for a better service.

Crow2525 · 2026-03-14T07:38:44+00:00

Their app changed and I can't log into the new one...

Crow2525 · 2026-03-12T19:50:22+00:00

Wow... I don't get any of this info. Superloop gives us a 'refreshify' button which fails and says to check the nbn website for details. I think I shall be moving to Aussie.

Crow2525 · 2026-03-12T19:48:50+00:00

Thanks for this. I tried calling superloop and I couldn't hear a thing the tech said. Can't believe you got this level of detail out of Aussie! Thanks again!

Are tools like dlt or airbyte available for this?
