Lakeflow Community Connector connections are supported, but not as a normal Spark SQL CREATE CONNECTION type today. They’re supported through the Lakeflow Community Connectors flow/UI and companion CLI/API path, while SQL/SDK enum surfaces still don’t recognize COMMUNITY as a first-class connection type.

For Community connectors, use one of these paths:

- Lakeflow UI:  New → Add or upload data → source under Community connectors.
- Community connector CLI: community-connector create_connection ... which stamps connection_type=COMMUNITY for you.
