From Monitor > Capacities, selecting '+ New capacity' opens a configuration page requiring capacity type, name, Azure subscription, resource group, region, SKU size, and capacity admins. An Additional settings section allows configuring resource tags. Creating a capacity requires Fabric administrator access plus Azure permissions in the chosen subscription. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
