How to Remove Widgets from Databricks Notebook

BRIEF OVERVIEW

To remove widgets from a Databricks notebook, you can follow these steps:

  1. Locate the widget you want to remove in your notebook.
  2. Select the cell containing the widget.
  3. Delete or comment out the code that creates and displays the widget.

This will effectively remove the widget from your notebook. If there are multiple cells using the same widget, make sure to delete or comment out all relevant code blocks.

FAQs:

Q: Can I undo removing a widget?

A: Unfortunately, once you delete or comment out the code for a widget, it cannot be undone within Databricks. It is recommended to save a backup of your notebook before making any changes.

Q: Will removing a widget affect other parts of my notebook?

A: Removing a specific widget should only affect its associated cell(s) where it was used. Other parts of your notebook should remain unaffected unless they rely on that particular widget for functionality.

BOTTOM LINE:

If you no longer need certain widgets in your Databricks notebook, you can easily remove them by deleting or commenting out their respective code blocks. Remember to save backups and consider potential impacts on other parts of your notebook when removing widgets.
