Error Running Delta Live Pipeline.

[Noman_Q]

Hi Guys, I am new to the Delta pipeline. I have created a pipeline and now when i try to run the pipeline i get the error message "PERMISSION_DENIED: You are not authorized to create clusters. Please contact your administrator" even though I can create personal clusters for my self in the workspace and i have account admin role in the workspace ? what permissions am i missing ?

Hey @Noman_Q 

Here are some potential reasons why you might be seeing this error even with an account admin role:

1. Cluster Policy Restrictions:

• Even with admin rights, cluster creation might be restricted by existing cluster policies within your workspace. These policies could limit who can create clusters based on factors like user groups, resource allocations, or specific projects.
• Check if any cluster policies are active in your workspace by navigating to Workspace Settings > Cluster, Pool, and Jobs Access Control. If such policies exist, you might need to work with your administrator to adjust the restrictions or grant you specific permissions to create clusters for your pipeline.

2. Delta Job Access Control:

• While you might have admin privileges, Delta job access control could be enabled in your workspace, requiring additional permissions to run Delta jobs. This feature allows for granular control over job execution and might be restricting your access even with your admin role.
• Verify if Delta job access control is enabled in your workspace settings. If so, you might need to talk to your administrator to grant you the necessary permissions to run Delta jobs or temporarily disable the access control for testing purposes.

Hope this helps!

Thank you for responding @Palash01 . thanks for giving me the direction so to get around it i had to get permission to "unrestricted cluster creation".
