I am trying to connect erWin Data Modeler to Databricks to reverse engineer a physical data model. I am trying to connect manually per erWin and Databricks instructions, but I am getting the following error

[Databricks][DatabricksJDBCDriver][500593] Communication link failure. Failed to connect to server. Reason: HTTP Response code: 403, Error message: Unknown

Has anyone else successfully gotten past this error? If so, how?

I hope you referred https://docs.databricks.com/en/partners/data-governance/erwin.html

 

It is also possible, it can be a library issue, hope you are using the Databricks JDBC driver.
