Hello, I am confused with the Fabric Capacity Pricing. As an example if I sign up for F2 - 2 Capacity Units for $262.80 per month am I billed $262.80 per month or am I billed for what I actually use? As an example if I don't run any pipelines etc but just use Power BI do I still get a bill for $262.80. Thank You, Michael

Thank you that makes it clear.

Is that included in the documentation?

@Monalla-MSFT I found your answer on this question; it seems to respond to my post on Fabric Community (Has Fabric additional costs for executions?), but I need a clarification. I will summarise my doubt:
*
From the articles and documentation I read during 2023, I understood that, apart from OneLake storage, Power BI licenses, and any networking between regions, the price of a Capacity includes all Fabric services and their usage.
However, in recent days, I have found new articles that explain the calculation metrics for the usage of pipelines, Dataflow Gen2, queries, etc…
Assuming you purchase an F2 Capacity, which costs around €290 per month in the Western Europe region and you keep it active 24/7 for a month, will the cost of executing pipelines, dataflows, queries, notebooks, etc. during the month be billed in addition to the cost of the Capacity?* Thank you
