PAT needed but not allowed in "Advanced Data Engineering - 6.5L Deploy pipeline with the CLI Lab"

[jonxu]

It is stated in the lab notebook that:

Run the setup

Run the setup script for this lesson by running the cell below. This will ensure that:

• The Databricks CLI is installed
• Authentication is configured
• A pipeline is created

However, when I tried to run the pipeline from web terminal, it says: "Error: cannot load Databricks config file: no configuration file found at /root/.databrickscfg; please create one first".

When I tried to install CLI and configure it, I will need personal token, which is disabled for our Databricks Academy user...

Please advise,

Jon

You can try by using the Oauth token for User to Machine, you can follow the steps in https://docs.databricks.com/en/dev-tools/cli/authentication.html#oauth-user-to-machine-u2m-authentic...

Thanks Walter for the quick response!

When I followed the instructions, I got error message when clicking on the link generated in step 2 as:

This dbc-c50de945-b335.cloud.databricks.com page can’t be found

No webpage was found for the web address: https://dbc-c50de945-b335.cloud.databricks.com/oidc/accounts/labuser8235016_1732229099@vocareum.com/...

... and if I start with step 5, using workspace-level authorisation, I ended up with "localhost refused to connect." in the generated link.
