Documentation can be found here: Databricks SQL Connector for Python.

The Databricks SQL Connector is a Python library that allows you to use Python code to run SQL commands on Databricks clusters and Databricks SQL endpoints. This library follows PEP 249 -- Python Database API Specification v2.0.

Install the library with pip install databricks-sql-connector

Example usage:

from databricks import sql

connection = sql.connect(
  server_hostname='<server-hostname>',
  http_path='<http-path>',
  access_token='<personal-access-token>')

cursor = connection.cursor()

cursor.execute('SELECT * FROM RANGE(10)')
result = cursor.fetchall()
for row in result:
  print(row)

cursor.close()
connection.close()

Where:

• <server-hostname> is the Databricks instance host name.
• <http-path> is the HTTP Path either to a Databricks SQL endpoint (e.g. /sql/1.0/endpoints/1234567890abcdef), or to a Databricks Runtime interactive cluster (e.g. /sql/protocolv1/o/1234567890123456/1234-123456-slid123)
• <personal-access-token> is a HTTP Bearer access token, e.g. a Databricks Personal Access Token.
