Prevent service principal UUID from appearing on job name

TheManOfSteele

Hello!

I am using service principal id to authenticate my databricks bundle. But when the job runs, this id is automatically appended to both the name and tags column on the jobs run page. 

In my databricks.yml file I have name: "[${var.environment}]" for the job. But on databricks,  it looks something like [xxxxxxxx_xxxx_xxxx_xxx_xxxxxxxxxxxx] [${var.environment}]. 

How can I stop databricks from appending the service principal uuid to the name? 

Thank you very much!

Hi!

Sounds like the "development" mode. DAB will automatically prefix your jobname with <env> <user name> if you set "mode" to "development" in the databricks.yml file. The name lookup for service principals apparently doesn't work nicely and you get the UUID instead (the same thing happens with my deployments on AWS).
