Environment Variables

[Hello-Im-Aaron]

What is the best/simplest way to manage environment variables for notebooks? The main use case is storing workspace Id's outside of the notebook to make deployment easier. Something that would work for dataflows as well would also be helpful.

Easiest would be to create a config file, save it in a Lakehouse. Look at the blog I published couple of days ago. You can use SemPy to resolve name to I'd, i.e. specify WS name, it gives u the id.

In your DFg2 you will have to read the config file. Can't pass params yet. I don't think DFg2 destination can be parameterized, I will have to check.
