Serverless Access to Public internet

jpm2617 — Wed, 29 Apr 2026 15:09:00 GMT

Hi

I am trying to run notebooks on serverless compute but I cannot access the public internet. I cannot perform a get on google.com getting "[Errno -3] Temporary failure in name resolution".

I checked my admin console network policies and they all were on the default provided by databricks so I am not sure what I am missing. Could you please provide support?

Thanks

Hi @jpm2617 ,

Network policies have two primary modes: Full Access (unrestricted outbound internet) and Restricted Access (tightly controlled outbound connections). The default policy is associated with all workspaces that have no explicit network policy assignment.

The key thing to check is what your default policy's internet access mode is actually set to. "Default provided by Databricks" doesn't automatically mean "Full Access" - if your account admin (or a previous admin) has modified the default policy to restricted mode, public internet will be blocked.

As an account admin, do the following:

Go to the Account Console -> Security -> Networking tab
Under Policies, click Context-based ingress & egress control
Open the default policy (or whichever policy is attached to your workspace)
Click the Egress tab and check the internet access setting
Set it to "Allow access to all destinations" for unrestricted outbound internet access or add domains you want to reach to "Allowed domains"

If my answer was helpful, please consider marking it as accepted solution

Hi,
I cannot find the place that you have in your screenshot, this is what my network tab looks like.

Thanks,

I can also see that my default_policy attached to my workspace looks like this:
