How to import one databricks notebook into another?

I have a python notebook A in Azure Databricks having import statement as below:

import xyz, datetime, ...

I have another notebook xyz being imported in notebook A as shown in above code. When I run notebook A, it throws the following error: 

ImportError: No module named xyz

Both notebooks are in the same workspace directory. Can anyone help in resolving this?

Solution

  • The only way to import notebooks is by using the run command:

    %run /Shared/MyNotebook

    or relative path:

    %run ./MyNotebook
