In Microsoft Fabric, item permissions in a workspace are used to grant access to what?

• A. All items within a workspace
• B. Specific columns within a table
• C. Individual warehouses for downstream consumption
• D. Data sources in the tenant

Answer: (C)

Item permissions in a Fabric workspace control access to individual resources inside that workspace. The resource here is a warehouse, which is a compute environment used to run queries and support data processing for downstream tasks. By granting item permissions to a specific warehouse, you enable the designated users or services to access and use that warehouse for downstream consumption—allowing them to run queries or power related data pipelines. This permission is scoped to one item, not to all items in the workspace, and it isn’t about per-column access within a table or about data sources across the entire tenant.
