FAQPage Schema

How do I configure a Databricks profile for the CLI and SDK?▼

Configuring a Databricks profile involves setting your workspace host, choosing a compute target like a cluster_id or serverless, and running databricks auth login to persist settings to your configuration file.

What is Databricks profile configuration used for?▼

Databricks profile configuration is used to authenticate and connect Databricks Connect, the Databricks CLI, and the Databricks SDK to your workspace by storing settings like the workspace host and compute target in a configuration file.

Can I use serverless compute when setting up my Databricks CLI profile?▼

Yes, you can use serverless compute when setting up your Databricks profile. The configuration process allows you to choose either a specific cluster_id or serverless compute as your compute target for the CLI and SDK.

How do I securely display Databricks profiles after authentication?▼

When displaying Databricks profiles after authentication, the configuration process automatically redacts tokens. This ensures your sensitive authentication credentials remain secure while verifying the profile exists in your configuration file.

Does Databricks Connect authentication require a separate profile setup?▼

Databricks Connect authentication does not require a separate profile setup. Configuring a single Databricks profile in your configuration file applies the workspace host and compute settings for Connect, the CLI, and the SDK.
