Error: oidc: fetch .well-known: Get "https://%E2%80%93host/oidc/.well-known/oauth-authorization-serv

[feliximmanuel]

I'm trying to authenticate databricks using WSL but suddenly getting this error.

/databricks-asset-bundle$ databricks auth login –host https://<XXXXXXXXX>.12.azuredatabricks.net
Databricks Profile Name:<XXXXXXXXX>

Error: oidc: fetch .well-known: Get "https://%E2%80%93host/oidc/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server": dial tcp: lookup xn--host-z86a on 192.168.240.1:53: no such host

Someone could you please help me!

Thanks

It looks like the issue is caused by the dash before host. The command is using an en-dash (–) instead of a regular hyphen (-) — which breaks the URL parsing.

Try running this instead:

databricks auth login --host https://<your-instance>.azuredatabricks.net

(make sure you use two regular hyphens before host)

If you’re testing your OIDC setup or want to validate .well-known endpoints, token responses, or redirect flows, you can use these tools:

• OIDC Debugger – test OIDC authorization code flow

• JWT.io – inspect and verify JWT tokens

• OAuth Playground  – simulate OIDC & OAuth flows

These can help ensure your OIDC configuration and endpoints are working as expected.
