we are on a trial databricks premium workspace (fully managed by databricks)
we are trying to test Delta Sharing feature, where we are sharing UC table with a recipient using python client (outside of databricks). We are using `delta-sharing` python library, and setting up the client using very basic `delta_sharing.SharingClient(profile_file)` to setup the client.
We have no issues listing tables with this client, however when attempting to load data (eg client.to_pandas(table_url)) or check metadata from any of the shared tables we get this error:
'error_code': 'INVALID_PARAMETER_VALUE',
'message': 'DS_UNSUPPORTED_TABLE_TYPE: Could not retrieve '
'dbdemos_sharing_air_linedata.fli**ghts from Share '
'dbdemos_somename_air_lines because table with type [Databricks '
'managed storage] is currently unsupported in delta sharing '
'queries.'}
the error does not make a lot of sense, since you would think a table fully managed by Databricks would work with a Databricks core feature. the table is setup as a regular Delta table in UC (followed tutorial delta sharing air_lines)
perhaps this is a limitation of a trial subscription? or do we need to be on the "enterprise" version of workspace/databricks?
thank you.
