When done, you will have:
- A Databricks App connected to a Lakebase Postgres database
- Database schema and tables for your domain entities
- Working CRUD API routes (create, read, update, delete) backed by Lakebase
- A deployed app with persistent data storage
Prerequisites
Verify these Databricks workspace features are enabled before starting. If any check fails, ask your workspace admin to enable the feature.
- Lakebase Postgres available. Run
databricks postgres list-projects --profile <PROFILE>and confirm the command succeeds. Anot enablederror means Lakebase is not available to this identity. - Databricks Apps enabled. Run
databricks apps list --profile <PROFILE>and confirm the command succeeds (an empty list is fine). The template deploys an AppKit app to Databricks Apps. - A provisioned Lakebase project. Complete the Create a Lakebase Instance template first and collect the project's endpoint host, endpoint resource path, database resource path, and PostgreSQL database name.
