quickstart command

note

Databricks CLI use is subject to the Databricks License and Databricks Privacy Notice, including any Usage Data provisions.

The quickstart command within the Databricks CLI prints a short introduction to the Databricks CLI, covering authentication, profiles, building with Declarative Automation Bundles, and where to go next.

By default, the command prints a human-friendly guide. When stdout is not an interactive terminal (for example, when a coding agent runs the command), it prints a denser, agent-oriented version instead.
