Lost my entire code base in community edition

[Smishra_31]

Team, It's an Mayday Mayday Mayday situation !!!!!!!!!!!

I need my entire code base back for the databricks community edition. This is totally unacceptable or a good sign of trust from databricks without any prior info how can you guy's erode the complete codebase. Please help me in migrating my code base to the new databricks instance ASAP.

Hello @Smishra_31!

I’m sorry to hear about this and understand your concern. However, the Databricks Community Edition has been retired, and this update was communicated to all Community Edition users via email. It was also conveyed on the Community platform for wider visibility: PSA: Community Edition retires on January 1, 2026. Move to the Free Edition today to keep your work.

Now how will I get my code base back.

In another issue is that you can't run databricks workspace free in azure as this is done in aws environment even if you're able to retrieve it. I received mine with the help of the community but no longer useful, the only workaround is to create a pay-as-you-go azure subcription and create your databricks which can be a little bit expensive for learning purpose.
