README

Excerpt

Fabric CLI

Guidance for using fab to programmatically manage Fabric & Power BI service

Install via uv tool install ms-fabric-cli (get uv via winget install uv or brew install uv)
Fabric CLI is for working with the Cloud environment and not local files; it works with Power BI Pro, PPU, or Fabric; you DO NOT need a Fabric SKU to use the Fabric CLI
Keep fab current: check the installed version against the latest ms-fabric-cli release and upgrade with uv tool upgrade ms-fabric-cli unless the user has pinned a specific version. Discover commands and flags with fab --help and fab <command> --help rather than hard-coding behavior; the CLI surface changes regularly

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
