There is a keyword search option in Databricks that searches for a command or word in the entire workspace. How can search for a command in a specific folder or repository?

There is no such functionality at the moment.
But there are ways to achieve this:
- export the workspace by using the databricks cli. It will download all the notebooks etc, then you can perform a search with your IDE or ...
- use Repos. The workbooks are sent to git (Github, Azure Devops,...) and there you can go to your files and perform a search there.
The 2nd option is ofc a better approach.

My question was regarding a simple search in specific folders in Databricks, not cli or GitHub repo.

I think folder wise search wont work cause search engine works respective to the workspace.
please raise a feature request - https://docs.databricks.com/resources/ideas.html @Reza Rajabi

I would not consider this resolved. When I visit a forum, it's to find a solution, and I'm not completely sure if this feature has still not been created in Databricks since 2022. Regardless of that, I have submitted the feature request in Databricks.

@AtanuI agree with nelsoncardenas, the problem is not solved, and the answer currently only provides us with saying we need to raise a feature request.
Would it be possible to at least link the feature requested by nelsoncardenas to this post/answer? That way we can see the state the request is in right now.
