Locked out of my own Workspace Admin (ID: 1885148383889850) - Need assistance

Hello community,

I am a student learning Databricks on AWS. While trying to add a friend to a project, I accidentally removed my own user (gustavou.dias@gmail.com) from the native admins group inside my workspace.

Since I am the only user and don't have Account Admin rights in the Account Console to overwrite this, I am completely locked out of the Admin Settings. I tried contacting support via email, but since I am on a free/individual tier without a contract, I was redirected here.

Could a Community Engineer or Admin please help escalate this to restore my user's admin privileges?

Thank you so much!

Free Edition accounts are not covered by the Databricks support policy. You can create a new free workspace/account and migrate the assets. Export the items (notebooks etc) from the workspace and import them into the new one as its the quickest option to get back on track.
