Delete a workspace

This page shows you how to delete a workspace in your Databricks account.

Note

Once a workspace is deleted, Databricks is not responsible for cleaning up the resources attached to that workspace. Databricks recommends terminating all compute resources associated with a workspace before you delete it. Additionally, terminate any associated resources in your cloud provider account.

To delete an Azure Databricks workspace:

1. Log in to your Azure Databricks workspace as the account owner (the user who created the service).
2. Click your username in the top bar of the workspace, and select Azure portal from the dropdown menu.
3. In the Azure Databricks service, click Delete and then follow the instructions to delete the workspace.

Warning

If your workspace has Unity Catalog enabled by default, the automatically-created workspace catalog is retained when you delete the workspace. In order to retain data files for managed tables in this catalog, Azure Databricks converts the managed resource group into a regular resource group. The storage container that holds Unity Catalog data is also kept, along with the access connector in that resource group. To see if this applies to your workspace, see Step 1: Confirm that your workspace is enabled for Unity Catalog.
