# Lab Environment Setup
8+
9+
You can complete the Transact-SQL exercises in a sample database in Microsoft Fabric. Use the instructions in this page to prepare a suitable Fabric Database environment.
10+
11+
> **Note**: You need access to [Microsoft Fabric](https://learn.microsoft.com/fabric/get-started/fabric-trial) with sufficient permissions to create a Fabric Database to complete this exercise.
12+
13+
## Create a workspace
14+
15+
Before working with data in Fabric, create a workspace.
16+
17+
1. Open the [Microsoft Fabric home page](https://app.fabric.microsoft.com/home?experience=fabric) at `https://app.fabric.microsoft.com/home?experience=fabric`, signing in with your credentials if prompted.
18+
1. Create a new **Workspace** with a name of your choice, selecting a licensing mode in the **Advanced** section that includes Fabric capacity (*Trial*, *Premium*, or *Fabric*).
19+
1. When your new workspace opens, it should be empty.
20+
21+
## Provision Fabric Database
22+
23+
Now, you need to provision an instance of Fabric Database with a sample database that you can query.
24+
25+
1. In your new empty workspace, create a new **SQL Database** item named `Adventureworks`.
26+
1. When the new **Adventureworks** database has been created, select the **Sample data** option to import the sample database schema and data.
27+
28+
Wait for the sample data to be imported. This may take a few minutes.
29+
30+
1. After the data has been imported, refresh the **Adventureworks** database node in the **Explorer** pane and then expand it to see the tables under the **SalesLT** schema.
31+
32+
> **Note**: If you're familiar with the standard **AdventureWorks** sample database for Microsoft SQL Server, you may notice that we are using a simplified, lightweight (*LT*) version with fewer tables.
33+
34+
## Open the query editor
35+
36+
The query editor is a browser-based interface that you can use to run Transact-SQL statements in your database.
37+
38+
1. In your **Adventureworks** Fabric database, create a new query.
39+
1. In the **SQL query 1** pane, enter the following Transact-SQL code:
40+
41+
```sql
42+
SELECT * FROM SalesLT.Product;
43+
```
44+
45+
1. Use the **▷ Run** button to run the query, and and after a few seconds, review the results, which includes all columns for all products.
46+
1. Close the Query editor page.
47+
48+
Now that you've created the database and learned how to use the query editor to run Transact-SQL code, you can return to the query editor in your Fabric workspace at any time to complete the lab exercises.
49+
50+
> **Tip**: When you've finished with the database, delete the workspace you created to avoid unnecessary charges.
