Retrieve analytics metrics for Microsoft Fabric items
AI agents call get-fabric-metrics to retrieve information from Fabric-Analytics-MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and retrieves existing analytics metrics data from Microsoft Fabric without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It has no side effects and returns information only. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could potentially retrieve sensitive metrics data, but cannot modify systems or trigger actions.
