Databricks Platform Administration Fundamentals

I have enrolled in Databricks Platform Administration Fundamentals and on the Demo: "Using Databricks Utilities and CLI" it require"  you  to " open this Notebook in your workspace: 1- Using Databricks Utilities and CLi" 

Where does one obtain this Notebook? No information is provided. 

I.e. did I miss a module with content to download or credentials to use in a test environment? Or is this provided with a corporate Databricks account?

Hi @AMStrever,

Having checked this internally, I'm led to believe there isn’t a separate notebook download for this course. That section is a demo-only module, and because the content requires admin-level privileges, Databricks doesn’t provide a shared lab workspace or assets for it. If you want to follow along hands-on, you’d need access to your own Databricks workspace (e.g., via your company or a trial) and then simply recreate the steps from the video in a notebook there.

Hope this helps.

Ashwin for the response win. Thanks... 
however, unfortunately I do have a trial, as well as access multiple corporate workspaces. There are not "recreate steps" - in the training: it simply says " now open this notebook" which you need. It first gives you requirements: 

Workspace with Unity catalog enabled. 
Runtime 15.4 LTS

In the video the very next comment is: Now open this workbook in your workspace : "1- Using Databricks Utilities and CLi" 

I do not have this notebook and there is no indication on how to create or find it.

Hi @AMStrever,

From what I can see, you’re not missing anything – that “1 – Using Databricks Utilities and CLI” notebook is unfortunately not available for download in the current self-paced course.

The narration is inherited from an earlier/instructor-led version of the material where instructors had a bundle of notebooks. When the course was revamped into the current video/PDF format, that reference stayed in, but the actual notebook link never made it into the learner view.

There also isn’t an official public GitHub repo that contains this specific course notebook. As of now, the only practical option is to use your own UC-enabled workspace on 15.4 LTS and recreate the examples from the demo yourself. You can also report this via the course feedback / Academy support. 

If this answer resolves your question, could you mark it as “Accept as Solution”? That helps other users quickly find the correct fix.
