Azure Databricks - requesting Account Admin access

I created an Azure Databricks workspace and I am currently the only user.

I am Workspace Admin (member of the admins group) and Azure Owner, but I cannot access the Databricks Account Console.

This indicates that my user is not assigned the Databricks Account Admin role, and there appears to be no active Account Admin for this Databricks account.

I need Account Admin access to configure Network Connectivity Configuration (NCC) for Serverless SQL private connectivity (Power BI integration via VNet Data Gateway).

Request:

Please assign my Microsoft Entra ID user as Databricks Account Admin for this Azure Databricks account.

    Solved my problem by elevating my Entra ID permissions to Global Admin. Based on that, as the only user of newly created Azure Databricks workspace, I was able to reach Databricks console and make sure I am Account Admin (entering Databricks console with Global Admin actually automatically promoted me to Account Admin).
