Unable to Access Azure Blob Storage from Databricks Community Edition Notebook

Hi everyone,

I’m currently using the Databricks Community Edition and trying to access data stored in Azure Blob Storage from my .ipynb notebook. The storage account is part of my student free Azure subscription.

However, I’m not able to establish a connection or retrieve any data from the blob storage.

I wanted to check:

  • Is access to external Azure Blob Storage restricted in the Databricks Community Edition?
  • If it is supported, could someone guide me on the correct way to configure the connection?

Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
