I am trying to assign my databricks_current_metastore on terraform and I get the following error back as an output

Error: cannot read current metastore: cannot get client current metastore: invalid Databricks Workspace configuration

with data.databricks_current_metastore.this,

on main.tf line 23, in data "databricks_current_metastore" "this":

23: data "databricks_current_metastore" "this"{

data "databricks_current_metastore" "this"{

provider = databricks.accounts

depends_on = [ data.azurerm_databricks_workspace.workspace ]

}

provider "databricks" {

alias = "workspace"

azure_client_id = var.client_id

azure_client_secret = var.client_secret

azure_tenant_id = var.tenant_id

host = data.azurerm_databricks_workspace.workspace.workspace_url

}

provider "azurerm" {

client_id = var.client_id

client_secret = var.client_secret

tenant_id = var.tenant_id

subscription_id = var.subscription_id

features {}

}

provider "databricks" {

alias = "accounts"

host = "https://accounts.azuredatabricks.net"

account_id = var.account_id

}

Can you help me to resolve this issue

@badari_narayan Based on above terraform code, you are trying to use the databricks.accounts provider to read the current workspace metastore, which is incorrect — the databricks_current_metastore data source is a workspace-level resource, and must be used with the workspace-level provider.
