Question

Your organization uses a Microsoft Fabric deployment pipeline with Development, Test, and Production stages. A junior analyst, Priya, has been assigned the Contributor role on the Development workspace and the Member role on the Test workspace. She is not assigned any role in Production and is not listed as a user of the deployment pipeline itself. When Priya opens the deployment pipeline, she reports that she cannot deploy content from Development to Test. What is the most likely reason she cannot perform the deployment?

Accepted Answer

She must be granted access to the deployment pipeline (added as a pipeline user) in addition to having appropriate workspace roles.

Answer

Contributor on the source workspace is insufficient; she must be an Admin on both the Development and Test workspaces to deploy between them.

Answer

Deployment across stages requires that she also hold at least a Viewer role in the Production workspace, since pipelines validate all stages.

Answer

The XMLA endpoint must be enabled in read/write mode for her to move content between deployment pipeline stages.
