Request Account Admin Access to Azure Databricks Account.

Question

Request Account Admin Access to Azure Databricks Account.

SHREYA TADASE 0

I am the Azure subscription owner and creator of the Databricks workspace named adb03netflix.

My email is [Mod Removed - PII]

However, I do not see the "Manage Account" option and I am only shown "Select Workspace" when signing into https://accounts.azuredatabricks.net.

Please verify and grant me Databricks account admin access, as I cannot manage billing, Unity Catalog, or other account-level settings.

Hi @SHREYA TADASE
I understand you're the Azure subscription owner and have created the Databricks workspace adb03netflix, but you're only seeing “Select Workspace” instead of “Manage Account” at https://accounts.azuredatabricks.net.

Root Cause

This is expected behavior. In Azure Databricks, being the workspace creator or Azure subscription owner does not automatically grant access to account-level settings.
To manage billing, Unity Catalog, or other features via the Databricks Account Console, your user must be explicitly assigned the Account Admin role.

If someone in your organization already has Databricks Account Admin access, please ask them to:

Sign in to: https://accounts.azuredatabricks.net

Navigate to User Management

Add your email and assign the Account Admin role

Once added, you will see the “Manage Account” option and gain access to all account-level settings.

https://docs.databricks.com/aws/en/admin/users-groups/users

If no one in your organization has access to the Account Console or you cannot identify the current Account Admin, you may need to raise a support request to get promoted to Account Admin manually.

This guidance is also shared by @Vinodh247 .

Go to the Azure portal > search for Help + Support

Click + Create a support request

Fill in the form with the following:

Issue type: Technical

Service: Azure Databricks

Problem type: Permissions

In the description, mention that you need Account Admin access and no current admin is available

This will route your request to the Databricks team, who can assist further.
