Databricks

Interact with Databricks API

Overview

This node interacts with the Databricks API, specifically supporting multiple resources including "Model Serving". For the Model Serving resource and the Get Serving Endpoint operation, it retrieves details about a specific serving endpoint by its name. This is useful for users who want to programmatically access information about deployed machine learning model endpoints on Databricks, such as their status, configuration, or metadata.

Practical scenarios include:

  • Monitoring the status of a model serving endpoint before sending inference requests.
  • Retrieving endpoint details to integrate with other systems or dashboards.
  • Automating workflows that depend on the availability or properties of model serving endpoints.

Properties

Name Meaning
Endpoint Name Name of the serving endpoint to retrieve

The property "Endpoint Name" is a required string input specifying which model serving endpoint's details to fetch.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the Databricks API for the requested serving endpoint. The structure typically includes all relevant information about the endpoint such as its configuration, status, URL, and metadata.

No binary data output is indicated for this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API authentication token credential for Databricks.
  • Needs the Databricks host URL configured in credentials.
  • Uses HTTP requests to communicate with the Databricks REST API.

Troubleshooting

  • API Errors: If the API returns an error (e.g., 404 Not Found), the node will throw an error unless "Continue On Fail" is enabled. Check that the endpoint name is correct and that the API token has sufficient permissions.
  • Network Errors: If no response is received from the server, verify network connectivity and that the Databricks host URL is reachable.
  • Invalid Parameters: Ensure the "Endpoint Name" is provided and correctly spelled.
  • Permission Issues: Make sure the API token used has access rights to query model serving endpoints.
