Create a new cluster in Databricks using databricks-cli

I'm trying to create a new cluster in Databricks on Azure using databricks-cli.

I'm using the following command:

databricks clusters create --json '{ "cluster_name": "template2", "spark_version": "4.1.x-scala2.11" }'

And getting back this error:

Error: {"error_code":"INVALID_PARAMETER_VALUE","message":"Missing required field: size"}

I can't find documentation on this issue, would be happy to receive some help.

Solution

  • I found the right answer here.

    The correct format to run this command on azure is:

    databricks clusters create --json '{ "cluster_name": "my-cluster", "spark_version": "4.1.x-scala2.11", "node_type_id": "Standard_DS3_v2", "autoscale" : { "min_workers": 2, "max_workers": 50 } }'
