About privileges that clone a Git repository on Databricks

Hi,​all

Do I need admin privileges to clone a Git repository on Databricks?

Cloning was not possible with an account that did not have administrator privileges.

Regards.

Navigate to Settings > admin console > Workspace settings > Repos and check the value for "Repos Git URL Allow List permissions".

  • When set to 'Disabled (no restrictions)', users can clone or commit and push to any Git repository.
  • When set to 'Restrict Clone, Commit & Push to allowed Git repositories', users can only clone or commit and push to Git repositories in the allow list.
  • When set to 'Only restrict Commit & Push to allowed Git repositories', users can commit and push to Git repositories in the allow list. Users can clone all Git repositories.

Thank you for your response.

I now have a better understanding of this issue.

On a separate note, can you tell me if I need to have admin privilegesto add a repository?
