databricks dashboard deployment question

[anilsampson]

Hello, i am trying to run a databricks dashboard via workflow.

when i deploy the dashboard .json file in prod workspace via import dashboard option the dashboard_id is changed.

is there a way i can deploy this without having to re-deploy my workflow with the new dashboard id generated after importing the dashboard in prod workspace ?

would deploying it as a part of a bundle keep the dashboard_id the same as development?

Hello @anilsampson!

From what I understand, when you import a dashboard into another workspace, a new dashboard_id is always generated.
Deploying with a Databricks Asset Bundle does not keep the dashboard ID the same across different workspaces. Each workspace gets its own unique ID.
To automate workflow references, deploy the dashboard in the new workspace, then use the bundle bind command to link your bundle to the new dashboard. After this, the dashboard ID will remain stable for future deployments in that workspace.

Let me know if that doesn’t work out.
