Hello Experts, We have Azure Data bricks and it's integrated with Azure AD tenant by default. I don't see an option to change to some other Azure AD tenant or another identity provider for authentication. Requirement is to get B2C user authentication to Azure Data Bricks. Is it possible to change the authentication to Azure AD B2C ? If it's possible please let me know steps to make the change. Thanks Siva Pokuri.

Hello @Siva Krishna Pokuri , Thanks for the ask and also for using the Microsoft Q&A forum. Unfortunately, it is not possible to change the authentication to Azure AD B2C. Reason: Databricks is able to auth using the AAD tenant which is linked to the workspace. Azure Active Directory B2C users are not typically in the tenant so that are not able to log in to the Databricks workspace. They would need to be a guest at minimum. Hope this helps. Do let us know if you any further queries. ------------ Please accept an answer if correct. Original posters help the community find answers faster by identifying the correct answer. Here is how .

Thanks Pradeep.

Any work around that you can suggest? Because all my users are general population and we allow then to register on their own to register and access.

Thanks
Siva Pokuri.

Hello @Siva Krishna Pokuri ,

Unfortunately, you cannot change the authentication to Azure AD B2C. I had confirmed this with the Product team on the same.

Capabilities and best practices for user provisioning in Azure Databricks:

You can add a user to (within) a Databricks workspace without having to grant them any Azure RBAC role on the workspace resource (in the Azure Portal).

Azure AD Guest users may be added to a Databricks workspace.
