Power BI Refresh Error:
Fabric Pipeline Error 4112

What does this error mean?

The AzureML Service linked connection contains an invalid or missing value for a specific property. This typically indicates a bad format or undefined property in the connection configuration.

Common causes

  • 1A required property in the AzureML Service connection is missing or left blank
  • 2A connection property value is in the wrong format (e.g., incorrect URL, malformed resource ID)
  • 3The AzureML connection definition was partially updated and left in an inconsistent state
  • 4Copy-paste errors when manually entering connection property values

How to fix it

  1. 1Step 1: Identify the specific property named in the error message ('%propertyName;') and navigate to the AzureML Service connection in your Fabric Data Factory.
  2. 2Step 2: Verify the flagged property is defined and not empty — check for typos, extra whitespace, or incorrect formatting.
  3. 3Step 3: Cross-reference the property value against your Azure Machine Learning workspace settings (e.g., subscription ID, resource group, workspace name).
  4. 4Step 4: Save the corrected connection and re-run the pipeline to confirm the error is resolved.
  5. 5Step 5: If the error persists, delete and recreate the AzureML Service connection from scratch using values copied directly from the Azure portal.

Frequently asked questions

How do I find which property is invalid when the error message shows '%propertyName;' as a placeholder?

Check the full raw error message in Fabric pipeline run logs — the placeholder is substituted with the actual property name at runtime. Navigate to Monitor > Pipeline Runs, open the failed run, and expand the activity error details.

Can this error occur even if the connection was working previously?

Yes — if an AzureML workspace is moved, renamed, or its subscription changes, the stored connection properties become stale and invalid, triggering this error on the next pipeline run.
