Hi @actualhuman_012 

These official Databricks links should help, as they cover the production-recommended way (Service Principal) and the Serving Endpoint API with examples:

Service Principal authentication
https://docs.databricks.com/en/dev-tools/auth/service-principals.html

Serving Endpoints REST API (Agent / Model Serving)
https://docs.databricks.com/api/workspace/servingendpoints

Hope this documentation helps.
