The Databricks SQL Driver for Node.js is a Javascript driver for applications that connect to Databricks clusters and SQL warehouses. This project is a fork of Hive Driver which connects via Thrift API.

• Node.js 22.23.4+, 24.22.1+, 26.12.1+, or a later release

npm i @databricks/sql

examples/usage.js

const { DBSQLClient } = require('@databricks/sql');

const client = new DBSQLClient();

client
  .connect({
    host: '********.databricks.com',
    path: '/sql/2.0/warehouses/****************',
    token: 'dapi********************************',
  })
  .then(async (client) => {
    const session = await client.openSession();

    const queryOperation = await session.executeStatement('SELECT "Hello, World!"');
    const result = await queryOperation.fetchAll();
    await queryOperation.close();

    console.table(result);

    await session.close();
    await client.close();
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    console.log(error);
  });

See CONNECTION_PARAMETERS.md for every connection, session, and per-statement parameter the driver accepts, and whether each one applies to the Thrift backend (default), the SEA backend, or both.

The driver emits connection, statement, and CloudFetch metrics plus redacted error events to help Databricks improve driver reliability. No SQL text, parameter values, or row data is ever collected. Emission is gated by a server-side feature flag and can be disabled per-connection with telemetryEnabled: false or globally with the DATABRICKS_TELEMETRY_DISABLED env var.

See docs/TELEMETRY.md for the full event payloads, tuning knobs, multi-tenant guidance, and troubleshooting.

You can run all unit tests, or specify a specific test to run:

npm test
npm test -- <path/to/file.test.js>

Before running end-to-end tests, create a file named tests/e2e/utils/config.local.js and set the Databricks SQL connection info:

{
    host: '***.databricks.com',
    path: '/sql/2.0/warehouses/***',
    token: 'dapi***',
    database: ['catalog', 'database'],
}

Then run

npm run e2e
npm run e2e -- <path/to/file.test.js>
