fabric-dataflows-perf-remediation

fabric-dataflows-perf-remediation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from PatrickGallucci/fabric-skills. It costs 118 tokens per session (2,573 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A troubleshooting guide for Microsoft Fabric Dataflow Gen2, a cloud service that moves and transforms data. It covers refreshes, data transfer, query processing, staging, gateways, and destinations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate slow refreshes, failed Fast Copy or query folding, gateway delays, incremental refresh issues, capacity throttling, destination write problems, and monitoring needs.
Why use it?
It helps identify why a dataflow refresh is slow, fails, or uses capacity inefficiently. It provides diagnostic workflows for common bottlenecks and configuration problems.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

fabric-dataflows-perf-remediation scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/Get-DataflowHealthReport.ps1, scripts/Watch-DataflowRefresh.ps1), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Dataflows Gen2 Performance Troubleshooting

Systematic diagnostic workflows for identifying and resolving performance issues in Microsoft Fabric Dataflow Gen2 workloads covering data movement, transformation execution, staging configuration, and destination write optimization.

When to Use This Skill

  • Dataflow Gen2 refresh takes longer than expected
  • Fast Copy is not being utilized or is failing
  • Query folding indicators show red or yellow steps
  • Staging-to-destination data movement is a bottleneck
  • Gateway-connected dataflows have high latency
  • Incremental refresh is slower than full refresh
  • Capacity throttling affects dataflow execution
  • Refresh failures with permission or connector errors
  • Need to automate dataflow monitoring and health checks
  • Migrating from Dataflow Gen1 and seeing performance regressions

Prerequisites

  • Microsoft Fabric workspace with Data Factory enabled
  • Contributor or higher role on the workspace
  • PowerShell 7+ with Az.Accounts module for automation scripts
  • Access to Fabric Monitoring Hub for refresh history analysis
  • Fabric Capacity Metrics app access for CU consumption review

Quick Diagnosis: Symptom-to-Solution Map

Symptom Likely Cause Jump To
Refresh takes 2x+ longer than Gen1 Delta Parquet output overhead or staging misconfiguration Consideration 5 in Performance Guide
Fast Copy not activating Unsupported connector or non-foldable transforms Fast Copy Diagnostics
"Insufficient permissions for staging artifacts" Creator token expired (90+ days) Common Errors
Slow design-time previews Large dataset loaded in editor Design-Time Optimization
Staging-to-Lakehouse write is slow Extra data hop through staging Warehouse Staging Strategy
Gateway dataflows are slow All transforms running on gateway host Gateway Optimization
Incremental refresh slower than full Too many small buckets creating overhead Incremental Refresh Tuning
HTTP 430 / capacity throttled Concurrent Spark jobs exhausting CUs Capacity Management

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

fabric-dataflows-perf-remediation is a skill published in the GitHub repository PatrickGallucci/fabric-skills (16 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 118 tokens to every session and 2,573 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
