571: Fabric Notebook Toolkit - Measuring the Impact

Mike & Tommy dive into the Fabric Notebook Toolkit (FNTK), a Python library that makes end-to-end agentic development of Microsoft Fabric Notebooks possible from GitHub Copilot CLI, OpenAI Codex, and Claude Code. They break down whether putting AI agents in the driver's seat of notebook creation raises the bar for governance or just accelerates the chaos. Tune in to find out what guardrails, skills, and mindset shifts BI pros need before letting an agent loose in their workspace. https://pypi.org/project/fabric-notebook-toolkit/ News: https://www.meetup.com/chicagolandpowerbi/events/316158533/?eventOrigin=group_upcoming_events https://promptingbi.com/2026/10/08/why-i-built-skill-vault/ https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/blog/fbc_fabricupdatesblogs/a-new-look-and-new-capabilities-in-the-capacity-metrics-app-preview/5374114 Get in touch: Send in your questions or topics you want us to discuss by tweeting to @PowerBITips with the hashtag #empMailbag or submit on the PowerBI.tips Podcast Page.
