Frequently asked questions

LayerPulse reads your Fabric estate through a read-only Azure Service Principal. Your report data stays in your own tenant; we only keep the metadata about your data models, usage and cost that the insights need, never the contents of your reports. Hosted within the EU.

Read-only access through an Azure Service Principal, no passwords, only the minimal permissions needed to read. Write actions are not possible.

Read-only permissions at tenant level, so we can collect your data models, usage and cost. No write access, no access to the contents of your reports. You set up the Service Principal yourself, so you decide exactly what we can see.

Yes, at any time. You revoke the Service Principal's access in your own tenant and the connection is cut immediately. You are never locked in.

You set up the connection in a few minutes, with no installation. LayerPulse then collects your estate and you see the first insight within minutes, not days.

Yes. Quality analysis, ownership and documentation work for every semantic model you have, including Pro and shared capacity. Cost analysis only makes sense on a Fabric or Premium capacity, because that is where consumption is metered.

That depends on the size of your estate. Get in touch and we will look at your tenant together, and at what LayerPulse delivers for you, before you decide anything.

Quite the opposite. It is built for teams without a dedicated FinOps function, the teams that benefit most from automatically finding waste and having the documentation written for them.
