About privileges that clone a Git repository on Databricks

Hi,all

Do I need admin privileges to clone a Git repository on Databricks?

Cloning was not possible with an account that did not have administrator privileges.

Regards.

Navigate to Settings > admin console > Workspace settings > Repos and check the value for "Repos Git URL Allow List permissions".

When set to 'Disabled (no restrictions)', users can clone or commit and push to any Git repository.
When set to 'Restrict Clone, Commit & Push to allowed Git repositories', users can only clone or commit and push to Git repositories in the allow list.
When set to 'Only restrict Commit & Push to allowed Git repositories', users can commit and push to Git repositories in the allow list. Users can clone all Git repositories.

Thank you for your response.

I now have a better understanding of this issue.

On a separate note, can you tell me if I need to have admin privilegesto add a repository?
