Best Approach to Retrieve Policy IDs Across Multiple Workspaces

Chinu — Thu, 03 Jul 2025 21:27:47 GMT

Hi,
I’m aware of the API endpoint api/2.0/policies/clusters/list to fetch a list of policy IDs and names. However, we have 50 different workspaces, and I need to retrieve the specific policy ID and name for each one.

Could you advise on the most efficient way to accomplish this? For example:

Is there a way to query all workspaces at once?
Would scripting (e.g., Python loop with workspace IDs) be the best approach?

Thanks in advance for your guidance!

Hi @Chinu ,

Databricks does not provide a global API to query all workspaces in a single call. I guess your only option for now is to use scripting approach.
