# Databricks Volume

> Set up Databricks credentials for the Unity Catalog volume resource.

## Credentials

The resource reads a Unity Catalog volume over the Databricks SDK. It needs a
workspace host plus one auth method: a personal access token, a config
profile, or the SDK defaults (handy inside Databricks Apps).

### 1. Get Your Workspace Host

Your workspace URL, e.g. `https://dbc-xxxxxxxx-xxxx.cloud.databricks.com`
(AWS) or `https://adb-xxxxxxxxxxxx.xx.azuredatabricks.net` (Azure).

### 2. Create a Personal Access Token

1. In the workspace, open **Settings** -> **Developer** -> **Access tokens**.
2. Click **Generate new token**, set a comment and lifetime, and copy it.

### 3. Set Environment Variables

```bash theme={null}
# .env.development
DATABRICKS_HOST=https://dbc-xxxxxxxx-xxxx.cloud.databricks.com
DATABRICKS_TOKEN=dapi...
```

### Alternatives

* **Config profile:** add a profile to `~/.databrickscfg` and pass
  `profile="DEV"` instead of host/token.
* **SDK defaults:** omit host, token, and profile to fall through to the
  Databricks SDK default auth chain (for example inside Databricks Apps).

For Python configuration, see the [Python Databricks Volume Setup](/python/setup/databricks) guide.
