Calling the w.genie function throws a "API is not yet supported in the workspace" error. [0.39.0]

Hi everyone,

I've been trying to call the databricks genie function, but even on the latest build, it throws the error stating: w.genie API is not yet supported in the workspace.

Here is the output of the logs:
> {
> "content": "**REDACTED**"
> }
< {
< "error_code": "PERMISSION_DENIED",
< "message": "This API is not yet supported in this workspace."
< }

I've ensured that I've access to all the Genie's functionality and have been able to use it without any hassle directly on a genie space.

If anyone has found a workaround this, can you please help me out?

Thank you!

Hi @gluedhawkeye ,

I tested this on my own and getting the same error:

This is the same code as used here, but they have an info "This script implements an experimental chatbot that interacts with Databricks' Genie API, which is currently in Private Preview.".

It seems the error may be due to the feature being in a limited release phase.
