You can create&nbsp;</SPAN><SPAN>a new free workspace/account and migrate the assets. Export the items (notebooks etc) from the workspace and import them into the new one as its the quickest option to get back on track.</SPAN></P> Wed, 17 Jun 2026 11:54:47 GMT https://community.databricks.com/t5/administration-architecture/locked-out-of-my-own-workspace-admin-id-1885148383889850-need/m-p/159432#M5338 balajij8 2026-06-17T11:54:47Z
