Delete an item from Microsoft Fabric workspace
AI agents call delete-fabric-item to permanently remove resources in Fabric-Analytics-MCP — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool permanently removes items from a Microsoft Fabric workspace with no apparent undo mechanism. Deletion is irreversible and cannot be recovered through normal means. The blast radius is high because an AI agent could accidentally or maliciously delete critical workspace items, datasets, notebooks, or other artifacts that teams depend on.
