Write Config file Issue

Question

I am trying to write config file created in the workspace using SDK.

Below is the error message along with the code :

ws = Workspace.create(name='XYZ',
subscription_id='XYZ',
resource_group='XYZ',
create_resource_group=True,
location='eastus2')

ws.write_config("./config")

serErrorException: UserErrorException:
Message: Could not write the config file to: /Users/sumit/Downloads/.azureml/check/.azureml
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Users/sumit/Downloads/.azureml/check/.azureml'

@sumit gupta Config file path which you have specified is not available. You need to specify the path correctly to write to the config file.

Please use the below code and update if that solves your issue.

ws.write_config(path="./file-path", file_name="ws_config.json")  

To load the workspace from the configuration file, use the from_config method.

  ws = Workspace.from_config()  
       ws.get_details()  

If you ran the Azure Machine Learning quickstart in Azure Notebooks, you already have a configured workspace! You can go to your Azure Machine Learning Getting Started library, view config.json file, and copy-paste the values for subscription ID, resource group and workspace name below.

Replace the default values in the cell below with your workspace parameters

import os  
  
subscription_id = os.getenv("SUBSCRIPTION_ID", default="<my-subscription-id>")  
resource_group = os.getenv("RESOURCE_GROUP", default="<my-resource-group>")  
workspace_name = os.getenv("WORKSPACE_NAME", default="<my-workspace-name>")  
workspace_region = os.getenv("WORKSPACE_REGION", default="eastus2")  

Write to config.json file

from azureml.core import Workspace  
  
try:  
    ws = Workspace(subscription_id = subscription_id, resource_group = resource_group, workspace_name = workspace_name)  
    # write the details of the workspace to a configuration file to the notebook library  
    ws.write_config()  
    print("Workspace configuration succeeded. Skip the workspace creation steps below")  
except:  
    print("Workspace not accessible. Change your parameters or create a new workspace below")
