  You’re running into a Databricks SQL results delivery limit—the UI (and even “Download results”) isn’t meant to stream 1.5M × (id, name, 5,000-double array) back to your browser. That’s why SELECT * “works” on Snowflake’s console but not in the DBS...

Had this same problem. Fix was to have two workflows with no triggers, each pointing to the respective git repo. Then setup a 3rd workflow with appropriate triggers/schedule which calls the first 2 workflows. A workflow can run other workflows.
