From the workspace dropdown, you can select New Library, and then select Python eggs or specify specific packages. Please see attached screenshots.

Thanks very much @Arsalan Tavakoli-Shiraji​ 

@Arsalan Tavakoli-Shiraji​  how do we attach it to a specific cluster programmatically (and not just all clusters by checking that box)

You can use the Databricks Libraries API to programmatically attach libraries to specific clusters. For more information: https://docs.databricks.com/api/latest/libraries.html#install

Use --py-files with Spark Submit: Zip the package and add it using --py-files when you run spark-submit. For example:

spark-submit --py-files path/to/your_package.zip your_script.py

If --py-files doesn’t work, try this shorter method:

  1. Create a Conda Environment: Install your packages.

    conda create -n myenv python=3.x
    conda activate myenv
    pip install your-package

    Package and Submit: Use conda-pack and spark-submit with --archives.

    conda pack -n myenv -o myenv.tar.gz
    spark-submit --archives myenv.tar.gz#myenv --conf spark.pyspark.python=myenv/bin/python your_script.py

    This runs your Spark job with the required packages.
