Post-processing in Business Process Solutions

After you deploy insights, complete these post-processing tasks to import lakehouse views, reset checkpoints for delta tables, and configure semantic model refresh.

Connection for Semantic Model Refreshes

To refresh the semantic model automatically through pipelines, set up a connection in Microsoft Fabric.

  1. Open the semantic model item. Select File > Settings. Screenshot showing how to open the semantic model settings.
  2. Open Gateway and cloud connections. Under Cloud connections, select Create a connection.
  3. Enter a unique name for your connection. Multiple reports can use this connection. Select OAuth 2.0 as the authentication method. Screenshot showing how to create a Microsoft Fabric lakehouse connection.
  4. Select Edit credentials. Provide the credentials. Then select Create.
  5. After the connection is created, return to the semantic model. Associate the connection. Screenshot showing how to associate a connection to the semantic model.
  6. Refresh the semantic model. Confirm that it completes successfully.

Import Lakehouse Views

Some insights require SQL views on top of the lakehouse. To deploy these views, run the provided notebook from your workspace:

  1. Navigate to your workspace.
  2. Open the notebook bps_gold_view_creation. Screenshot showing how to open the bps_gold_view_creation notebook.
  3. Select Run all. Screenshot showing how to run the bps_gold_view_creation notebook.
  4. When the notebook run finishes, you should see the SQL views in your gold lakehouse.

Reset Checkpoint for Delta Tables

If you need to reinitialize delta extraction for a table, you can reset its checkpoint from the dataset explorer.

  1. In Datasets, navigate to the required dataset and select the delta table.
  2. Select the ellipsis (...) next to the table, and then select Reset Checkpoint. Screenshot showing the table actions menu with the Reset Checkpoint option selected for a delta table.
  3. Confirm that the notification appears showing that the checkpoint reset is in progress. Screenshot showing the Resetting checkpoint notification for the selected table.
  4. Verify that the success notification appears after the operation completes. Screenshot showing the Successfully reset checkpoint notification for the selected table.
  5. Rerun the relevant extraction or processing pipeline if you want to reload the table after the checkpoint reset.
