Data preview Table vs Shortcut

Is data preview limited to Tables only?  I was hoping to have a data preview for Shortcuts but they don't seem to be available?

Hi @smpa01,

 

Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.

 

Data Preview is currently only supported for Tables. Shortcuts do not support data preview directly as of now.

To preview data from a Shortcut, you can Use Notebooks or Dataflows Gen2

This is a known limitation, and future updates may enhance preview capabilities for Shortcuts.
