Power BI Refresh Error:
Pipeline Error 3200
What does this error mean?
A Fabric Data Factory pipeline activity calling Azure Databricks failed with error 403 because the Databricks personal access token used for authentication has expired. By default, Databricks access tokens expire after 90 days.
Common causes
- 1The Databricks personal access token stored in the pipeline linked service expired (default lifetime: 90 days)
- 2The token was manually revoked in the Databricks workspace before the pipeline was updated
- 3A Databricks workspace admin changed the token expiration policy to a shorter duration
How to fix it
- 1Log in to the Azure Databricks workspace and generate a new personal access token (User Settings > Access tokens > Generate new token)
- 2Update the token in the Fabric Data Factory linked service for the Databricks connection
Beyond the docs
Common practitioner solutions not covered in the official documentation.
- 1Set a calendar reminder to rotate the token before it expires again, or switch to a service principal with OAuth for token-free authentication
- 2Consider setting a longer token expiry (or no expiry for service accounts) if 90 days is too short for your pipeline schedule
