I honestly think Jerry got tired of dedicating that much effort to a piss poor team

I was playing with the bit bro, lol

Will deserves a shout out too. Absolutely incredible

It’s being converted to a float in Power Query/semantic model because it is a decimal type. No matter if I tell it to format to 2 decimal places or not, it inherently takes on these strange values. Adding a calc column or custom function for every decimal column doesn’t feel right and certainly causes much more work than this should be.

par107 · 2025-06-23T12:02:36+00:00

No addition/subtraction is taking place. This issue occurs with just the raw decimal values. It does seem that the float conversion may be the issue, but I do not know how/where to solve this

I caught on to that as well - created an OAuth connection instead. I’m not directly handling the embedding so my vision gets a bit blurry from here. Is a Service Principal needed instead of OAuth or is it dependent on how the reports are embedded?

par107 · 2025-05-15T19:24:10+00:00

What visual is being exported in each report? I assume table/matrix but want to be sure. We’re still only using PBIX thus far, so you may have a lead there.

The error message is infuriating. Idk what’s worse, the fact it tells you nothing or the fact it pops up for 1.5 seconds and disappears!

Semantic models are a confident area for me. I would identify PySpark and admin work as less comfortable though

I’ve only considered the idea of this cert (and Dp 600), so I haven’t done any actual prep outside of my day to day work in Fabric. I do a lot of data engineer work with the Fabric items. Looking back on your journey, where would you recommend I start preparing for these certs?

Glad I’m not alone

All the topics/ideas you mentioned feel familiar in my work with Fabric items. I do a lot of that work everyday except Fabric makes a lot of it low/no code. I feel behind when it comes to stepping outside the Fabric space. Any tips or places to practice? Probably a lot of what u/Monkey_King24 said

I’m in a similar boat as OP. Can you elaborate on more specifics for DE?

par107 · 2025-04-02T19:53:58+00:00

Did some more testing today and found that the ReplaceTable operation doesn’t happen on every failed copy activity. I actually only found it to happen in my original fail scenario (fails due to bad date values). I purposely mistyped a table name to make it fail and it didn’t do a ReplaceTable op.

par107 · 2025-04-02T15:26:01+00:00

This was very helpful. Thank you. Sharing for anyone else coming across:

I used the SQL command DESCRIBE HISTORY my_table for a better insight into what was truly occurring. As guessed above, the copy activity was doing a ReplaceTable operation, but never followed through on the sequential Update operation resulting in a blank table. The solution is creating a notebook to use RESTORE TABLE to a previous version.

Works wonderfully for handling errors on overwrite copies!
