Fabric Notebooks

Information

What: Interactive coding environments for data exploration, transformation and analytics.
Use cases: Cleansing, enrichment, joins, aggregations, ML, automation.

Overview

Notebooks in Microsoft Fabric are interactive coding environments designed for advanced data exploration, transformation, and analytics. You can use notebooks to:

  • Clean and enrich data
  • Perform joins and aggregations
  • Build machine-learning models
  • Trigger downstream processes

Notebooks support multiple languages — Python, SQL, Spark — allowing users to write code, visualise data, and run complex logic all within a single interface.

When to use a notebook

Notebooks are especially useful when visual tools like Dataflows aren't flexible enough for custom logic, or when you need fine-grained control over execution. They also support scheduling and pipeline triggers, making them a powerful tool for automation and repeatable workflows.

ScenarioUse Notebook?
Quick, low-code ETL on tabular data❌ Use Dataflow Gen2 instead
Standard table-to-table movement❌ Use Data Pipeline instead
Custom logic / parsing / ML✅ Notebook
Mixed languages in one workflow✅ Notebook
Fine-grained scheduling + branching✅ Notebook (often called from a Pipeline)
