Free edition confusing me with an expired trial

GreenFox — Tue, 11 Nov 2025 20:14:23 GMT

Hi there.

I've tried to sign up to Databricks Free Edition, but each time I log in it takes me to an expired free trials and I have no option to reset or do anything. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Many thanks for the help.

Nick

Hey @GreenFox , sounds like you may have spun up the Free Trial instead of the Free Edition — easy mix-up, they’re actually two different things. You can get started with the Free Edition here: https://www.databricks.com/learn/free-edition

Hi, appreciate the response and apologies for not confirming. I was using the free edition link. I did indeed try again and checked carefully. If you're not careful, the flow takes you to an existing account, but I managed to navigate it in the end. Thanks!
