topic Why are the get..Id() functions returning 'some(123456)' instead of just the id? in Data Engineering https://community.databricks.com/t5/data-engineering/why-are-the-get-id-functions-returning-some-123456-instead-of/m-p/16293#M10494 <P>Hey fellow users, </P><P>I've successfully retrieved the notebook context during job runs and there are several getId calls. For some reason when the ids are returned, they are wrapped in a some() instead of just the number. Does anyone know why this is the case and how we can get the number from this without fancy parsing?</P><P></P><P>Thanks!</P><P></P><P>-MF</P> Fri, 16 Dec 2022 17:50:17 GMT fury88 2022-12-16T17:50:17Z Why are the get..Id() functions returning 'some(123456)' instead of just the id? https://community.databricks.com/t5/data-engineering/why-are-the-get-id-functions-returning-some-123456-instead-of/m-p/16293#M10494 <P>Hey fellow users, </P><P>I've successfully retrieved the notebook context during job runs and there are several getId calls.
