Power BI Refresh Error:
Fabric Pipeline Error 2110

What does this error mean?

The connection type specified in the pipeline activity is not supported for that activity type. The activity requires a compatible connection or linked service type.

Common causes

  • 1A linked service of the wrong type was selected when configuring the activity (e.g., using a Blob Storage connection for a SQL-based activity)
  • 2The pipeline was cloned or templated from another pipeline and the connection was not updated to match the new activity type
  • 3A recent change to the activity type was made without updating the associated connection
  • 4Incorrect connection selected during pipeline authoring due to similar naming conventions

How to fix it

  1. 1Step 1: Open the failing pipeline in Fabric Data Factory and navigate to the activity reporting Error 2110.
  2. 2Step 2: Review the connection or linked service assigned to the activity and note its current type.
  3. 3Step 3: Consult the Microsoft Fabric documentation for the specific activity to identify the list of supported connection types.
  4. 4Step 4: Update the activity's connection to one of the supported types, creating a new linked service if necessary.
  5. 5Step 5: Save the pipeline, trigger a debug run, and confirm the activity completes without error.

Frequently asked questions

How do I find which connection types are supported for a specific activity?

Refer to the official Microsoft Fabric Data Factory documentation for the specific activity (e.g., Copy Activity, Lookup Activity). Each activity page lists the supported linked service and connector types under its properties section.

Does this error occur at pipeline save time or only at runtime?

This error is typically detected at runtime when the activity attempts to initialize its connection. Some validation may surface during authoring, but it is not always caught until the pipeline is executed.
