Thank you!

Is there a way to re-sync changes made in databricks to show up in VS Code? I know you said the way we set things up only update in 1-direction, but I'm curious if there is a way to sync back to VS Code?

i have an error:
Sync Error: Unknown internal error. Your operation did not behave as expected, please contact your Databricks representative for further support.

If someone changes the code on the Databricks platform, I don't receive the update for this change in my local data. Is this a bug, or does the program work like that?

It's one-directional sync, 10:08
I guess they want to avoid conflict in 2 bi-directional sync

Can we do this setup for Community databricks workspace also in local VS?

[@pathfinder-analytics]

I don’t think so as the community edition does not support Repos to my understanding

[@Pedroni.marcelo]

@@pathfinder-analytics sad but true budy, i've tried but was frustrated on the same situation
