Create a sample Warehouse in Microsoft Fabric

Applies to: Warehouse in Microsoft Fabric

This article describes how to get started with sample Warehouse using the Microsoft Fabric portal, including creation and consumption of the warehouse.

How to create a new warehouse with sample data

In this section, we walk you through creating a new Warehouse with sample data.

Create a warehouse sample using the Home hub

1. The first hub in the navigation pane is the Home hub. You can start creating your warehouse sample from the Home hub by selecting the Warehouse sample card under the New section.

   

2. Provide the name for your sample warehouse and select Create.

   

3. The create action creates a new Warehouse and start loading sample data into it. The data loading takes few seconds to complete.

   

4. On completion of loading sample data, the warehouse opens with data loaded into tables and views to query.

   

Load sample data into existing warehouse

1. Once you have created your warehouse, you can load sample data into warehouse from Use sample database card.

   

2. The data loading takes few seconds to complete.

   

3. On completion of loading sample data, the warehouse displays data loaded into tables and views to query.

   

Sample scripts

Your new warehouse is ready to accept T-SQL queries. The following sample T-SQL scripts can be used on the sample data in your new warehouse.

Note

It is important to note that much of the functionality described in this section is also available to users via a TDS end-point connection and tools such as SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) or Azure Data Studio (for users who prefer to use T-SQL for the majority of their data processing needs). For more information, see Connectivity or Query a warehouse.
