Copy a script from the current subscription to new subscription

I would like to check if there is a process to copy a script/code or migrate the script from the current subscription of the Azure Databricks - Notebooks to new subscription of Databricks (new notebook).

Hi Mec Mec , we have databricks migration too that will help you to migrate all the notebooks.

https://github.com/databrickslabs/migrate

If your requirement is to copy only a single notebook you can export it from the old workspace and import it to the new one.

To export a folder you can do the below:

Please refer to the below link for more information.

We will need to copy the script from the notebook then transfer or migrate to a new notebook (New Subscription, new databricks)

as @Prabakar Ammeappin said just use https://github.com/databrickslabs/migrate or just use export option in notebook (in File top menu) or go to workspace click arrow and choose export (possible for both directory and notebook)

@Michelle Rivera - I would also look into version control for your notebooks. The Databricks repos are a great way to do this but you can do it in the workspace as well.

With version control you would be able to clone the repository into the new workspace.

Moving notebooks from one workspace to another is fast if you programmatically do it. If you use the REST APIs or Repos it will take very little time. If you decide to manually export/import it could take longer.
