Steps to connect to a machine learning partner

To connect your Azure Databricks workspace to a machine learning partner solution, follow the steps in this section.

Tip

If you have an existing partner account, Databricks recommends that you follow the steps to connect to the partner solution manually in the appropriate partner article. This is because the connection experience in Partner Connect is optimized for new partner accounts.

  1. In the sidebar, click Partner Connect button Partner Connect.

  2. Click the partner tile.

    Note

    If the partner tile has a check mark icon inside it, an administrator has already used Partner Connect to connect the partner to your workspace. Skip to step 4. The partner uses the email address for your Azure Databricks account to prompt you to sign in to your existing partner account.

  3. Click Next.

    Partner Connect creates the following resources in your workspace:

    • An Azure Databricks cluster named <PARTNER>_CLUSTER.
    • An Azure Databricks service principal named <PARTNER>_USER.
    • An Azure Databricks personal access token that is associated with the <PARTNER>_USER service principal.

    The Email box displays the email address for your Azure Databricks account. The partner uses this email address to prompt you to either create a new partner account or sign in to your existing partner account.

  4. Click Connect to <Partner> or Sign in.

    A new tab opens in your web browser, which displays the partner website.

  5. Complete the on-screen instructions on the partner website to create your trial partner account or sign in to your existing partner account.
