databricks workspace import_dir not working without any failure message

ila-de — Mon, 10 Feb 2025 09:58:54 GMT

Morning everyone!

I`m trying to copy from the repo into the databricks workspace all the notebooks.

I`m using the command: databricks workspace import_dir . /Shared/Notebooks, it will just print all the info regarding the Workspace API.

If I launch databricks clusters list it will print all the clusters. It seems the issue is with all the command under databricks workspace... Have someone the same issue?

Thanks in advance for the support!

Hello @ila-de,

Could you please advise why version of databricks cli are you using?

databricks -v

Please try to upgrade the version to latest if it is not.

Can you try with: databricks workspace import-dir --overwrite $localDirectory $destinationNotebookDirectory

Hi @ila-de,

Can you try using --debug option? and embedding a test file?

Like this:

databricks workspace import-dir test /Workspace/Users/ --debug

Hi @Alberto_Umana , I attach screenshot so you can see, I always have the same "output". It seems "databricks workspace" as command itself is not working

databricks -v

Hi all,

I`ve disinstalled and installed again databricks-cli and now worked.

Is not a real solution but still it worked after one week...
