Data Agents - QLD Power BI and Fabric User Group Aug 2026

This session explains how Data Agents function inside Microsoft Fabric and how they support data connectivity, orchestration, and automated actions. You will see the main building blocks that enable these agents and walk through a practical setup of an agent in Fabric. We will also make a brief comparison between Fabric Data Agents and other comparable tools, outlining similarities, differences, and where each option is most suitable.
