Not Able to Access Clusters in Databricks Community Edition

ha11shu — Fri, 20 Jun 2025 12:30:20 GMT

I am a beginner trying to learn Databricks for data engineering practice. I recently signed up for the Databricks Community Edition using my email.

However, after logging in, I keep getting redirected to the Free SQL Edition interface, where only SQL Warehouses are visible. I do not see options like Clusters, Notebooks, or the Workspace.

I am not in the full Community Edition workspace (https://community.cloud.databricks.com), but rather in a limited SQL-only version.

Hi @ha11shu ,

From the screenshot, It looks like you've signed up for the Free Edition, which is the updated version of the Community Edition.
Also, to let you know, Free Edition users only have access to serverless compute resources.

Can you try creating or logging in from this site and see if it helps?

"Yes, I have created my account, but I am unable to use clusters as the clusters option is not visible in the Free Edition.
Please guide me on how I can work with clusters or use features similar to clusters
