On the docs it states: Service principals give automated tools and scripts API-only access to Databricks resources, providing greater security than using users accounts.https://docs.databricks.com/gcp/en/admin/users-groups/service-principals#what-is-...

Hello @lucasbergamo! Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I'll share this with the relevant team for further investigation. In the meantime, as a workaround you can continue using Caps Lock while entering the verification code to log in.
