Fabric Infrastructure and Security - OneLake security and workspace automation for Microsoft Fabric

fabias - Fabric Infrastructure and Security

OneLake security and workspace automation for Microsoft Fabric. Works seamlessly both inside Fabric notebooks and as a standalone library.

Full documentation at fabias.pages.dev

Why fabias?

Microsoft Fabric has no official Python SDK. The CLI is limited. fabias fills the gaps:

• OneLake ABAC Security - Table/row/column-level access control as code
• Workspace Automation - Create workspaces, assign roles, configure Spark
• CI/CD Ready - Works outside Fabric for GitHub Actions and automation scripts
• Hybrid Runtime - Same code runs in notebooks and standalone

Installation

pip install fabias

Quick Start

Inside Microsoft Fabric

Authentication is automatic:

import fabias

ws = fabias.workspace()  # Current workspace
pipeline = ws.pipeline("Daily ETL")
job = pipeline.run()
job.wait()

Standalone Usage

import fabias
from fabias import ServicePrincipalAuth

auth = ServicePrincipalAuth(
    tenant_id="your-tenant-id",
    client_id="your-client-id",
    client_secret="your-client-secret"
)
fabias.client(auth=auth)

ws = fabias.workspace("Analytics")
lakehouse = ws.lakehouse("Gold")

OneLake Data Access Roles (ABAC Security)

The killer feature. Define lakehouse security as code:

import fabias
from fabias import Role, Rule, EntraMember, FabricItem, ReadWrite, ItemAccess
from fabias import RowLevelSecurity, ColumnLevelSecurity

ws = fabias.workspace("Analytics")
lakehouse = ws.lakehouse("Sales")

# Regional managers: read-only with row filter
regional_role = Role(
    name="Regional Managers",
    rules=[
        Rule(
            path=["dbo.sales"],
            access=ReadWrite.READ,
            rls=RowLevelSecurity("region = 'West'")
        )
    ],
    members=[EntraMember("managers-group-guid")]
)

# Data engineers: full access inherited from workspace permissions
engineer_role = Role(
    name="Data Engineers",
    rules=[Rule(path=["*"], access=ReadWrite.READWRITE)],
    members=[FabricItem(access=[ItemAccess.READALL])]
)

# Apply roles
lakehouse.accessRoles.replace([regional_role, engineer_role])

Workspace Operations

import fabias

# List workspaces
for ws in fabias.workspaces():
    print(f"{ws.name}: {ws.id}")

# Create workspace
new_ws = fabias.workspaces.add("Feature Branch", capacity_id="...")

# Role assignments
new_ws.roleAssignments.add(
    principalId="spn-guid",
    principalType="ServicePrincipal",
    role="Admin"
)

# Access items
pipelines = ws.pipelines()
lakehouses = ws.lakehouses()
notebooks = ws.notebooks()

Git Integration

ws = fabias.workspace("GENESIS")

# Check status
status = ws.git.status()
print(f"Synced: {status.is_synced}")

# Pull from Git
if status.has_changes:
    ws.git.updateFromGit().wait()

Connections

# List connections
for conn in fabias.connections():
    print(f"{conn.name}: {conn.connectivity_type}")

# Manage access
conn = fabias.connection("SQL Server")
conn.roleAssignments.add(principalId="user-guid", principalType="User", role="Owner")

Spark Settings

ws = fabias.workspace("Analytics")

# Configure workspace Spark
settings = ws.spark.settings
settings.highConcurrency.enabled = True
settings.pool.starterPool.maxNodes = 10
settings.commit()

Additional Modules

Azure Data Factory

from fabias.integrations import adf
from fabias import ServicePrincipalAuth

adf.client(
    subscription_id="...",
    resource_group="rg-name",
    factory="adf-name",
    auth=ServicePrincipalAuth(...)
)

job = adf.pipeline("ETL").run(date="2026-01-01")
job.wait()

Key Vault Secrets

from fabias.integrations import keyvault

# Inside Fabric (auth is automatic)
keyvault.client(vault_url="https://my-vault.vault.azure.net/")
password = keyvault.get("database-password")

Teams Messaging

from fabias.notifications import teams
from fabias.notifications.cards import Adaptive, TextBlock

teams.client(team_id="...", channel_id="...", auth=...)
teams.send(Adaptive(body=[TextBlock("Deployment complete!")]))

Authentication Methods

Method	Use Case
Automatic	Inside Fabric notebooks
ServicePrincipalAuth	CI/CD, automation scripts
Environment variables	AZURE_TENANT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET
From Key Vault	Bootstrap from secrets

Requirements

• Python 3.9+
• requests
• Inside Fabric: notebookutils (pre-installed)
