brickster 0.2.14

• Fixed OAuth U2M and M2M authentication across multiple Databricks workspaces in one R session by isolating OAuth clients and cached tokens per workspace (#256, @zacdav-db)
• OAuth tokens are now refreshed 40 seconds before expiry, avoiding Databricks API rejections during the final 30 seconds of a token’s lifetime; this requires {httr2} 1.3.0 or later (#258, @zacdav-db)
• Added databricks-cli authentication support for profiles created by databricks auth login; {brickster} obtains tokens through databricks auth token, caches only the short-lived access token in memory, and leaves durable credentials and refresh to the CLI (#258, @zacdav-db)
• Authentication mode overrides now come from auth_type in the selected .databrickscfg profile; replace DATABRICKS_AUTH_TYPE with the profile field. Environment-only authentication continues to infer the mode from available credentials (#258, @zacdav-db)
• Fixed dbWriteTable() and dbAppendTable() standard-path writes for binary columns, which now use Databricks BINARY types and X'...' literals when no staging volume is configured (#246, @zacdav-db)
• dbConnect() now preserves Databricks API error details when its validation query fails (#247, @zacdav)
• db_perform_request() and db_perform_response() now preserve useful error messages when Databricks returns non-JSON error bodies such as empty, plain-text, or HTML responses (#247, @zacdav)
• Fixed git_source() erroring when type was left at its default (#225, @m-muecke)
• Fixed Unity Catalog volume file requests so db_volume_* paths containing spaces are encoded correctly (#233, @zacdav-db)
• db_cluster_events() now forwards the event_types argument to the API, which was previously ignored (#236, @m-muecke)
• db_sql_warehouse_create() and db_sql_warehouse_edit() now forward the tags argument to the API, which was previously ignored (#240, @m-muecke)
• Unity Catalog list helpers now preserve next_page_token metadata in list responses for catalogs, schemas, tables, and volumes; their list arguments are sent as documented query parameters (#244, @zacdav-db)
• db_uc_volumes_list() now forwards the max_results, include_browse, and page_token arguments to the API, which were previously ignored (#228, @m-muecke)
• db_vs_indexes_query() now sends the score_threshold argument to the API, which was previously ignored (#235, @m-muecke)
• Added show_progress to dbConnect() for the DBI backend; dbGetQuery(), dbFetch(), dbWriteTable(), and dbplyr collect() now use the connection default while preserving per-call show_progress overrides (#223, @zacdav-db)

brickster 0.2.13

• Enabled db_request() retries for transient low-level HTTP request failures, improving resilience to intermittent curl/HTTP2 framing errors (#215)
• Added a DBI connection-level disposition setting so dbSendQuery() and default dbGetQuery() calls can use INLINE results when direct cloud-storage downloads are blocked (#205)
• Added Azure AD service principal OAuth M2M support (ARM_CLIENT_ID, ARM_CLIENT_SECRET, ARM_TENANT_ID) with optional DATABRICKS_AUTH_TYPE override (oauth-m2m, azure-client-secret, oauth-u2m); default auth resolution now prefers Azure M2M over U2M when ARM credentials are present (#185)
• Marked DBFS REST wrappers (db_dbfs_*) as deprecated and moved them to internal-only, guiding users towards using volumes (db_volume_*)
• Added db_volume_download_dir() for parallel directory downloads from Unity Catalog volumes to local directories
• Renamed preserve_structure to recursive in db_volume_upload_dir() and db_volume_download_dir() for consistent directory traversal semantics
• Added a new vignette for working with volumes
• Added compact, colorized {cli} S3 print methods for db_cluster_get()/db_cluster_list(), db_sql_warehouse_get()/db_sql_warehouse_list(), and db_jobs_get()/db_jobs_list() that preserve nested list structures while improving at-a-glance summaries
• Standardized DBI write progress argument naming: dbWriteTable() and internal db_write_table_volume() now use show_progress (#201)

brickster 0.2.12

• Fixed dbplyr::compute interaction for DBI backend (#184)
• Added OAuth M2M support for workspace-level service principal authentication (#173, #103)
• DBI connections accept http_path as an alternative to warehouse_id and extract the warehouse ID from /sql/1.0/warehouses/<id>.
• Added RStudio/Positron Connections Pane support for the DBI backend.
• Added DBI helpers for dbCreateTable(), dbReadTable(), and dbRemoveTable() with Id/AsIs support, plus offline tests for DBI table helpers.
• Optimized SQL result fetching for single-chunk external links by using the inline link from the initial response when available.
• Increment version of testthat required (>= 3.3.0)

brickster 0.2.11

• Added Lakebase workspace database helpers (db_lakebase_*) including credential generation, instance listing, instance lookup by name or UID, and catalog retrieval (#113)
• Moving all filesystem related calls to {fs} (#140)
• The DBI backend now always respects a staging volume when specified, even for small data (#143)
• schemaEvolutionMode is now always none when writing to tables with DBI backend and staging volumes (#147)

brickster 0.2.10

• Increment version of httr2 required (>= 1.1.1)
• DBI connections expose max_active_connections and fetch_timeout to control result download concurrency and timeouts
• DBI/dbplyr write table methods now make two transactions (create empty table –> insert into) to ensure type correctness
• Allow optional schedules in db_jobs_reset() and propagate parameters in reset/update requests.
• DBI/dbplyr inline writes now preserve single quotes in character columns via explicit escaping (#130)

brickster 0.2.9

• Added DBI + dbplyr backend support: DatabricksSQL() driver for standard DBI operations
• Increase support for job level parameters
• Added db_jobs_repair_run

brickster 0.2.8

• Added SQL Queries API coverage
• Updated Jobs to 2.2
• Added additional tasks for jobs: for_each_task, condition_task, sql_query_task, sql_file_task, run_job_task
• Removing the Python SQL connector as db_sql_query supersedes it.
• Added db_sql_query to simplify execution of SQL
• Adjusted db_repl to handle mulit-line expressions (R only)
• Removed RStudio Addins to send lines/selection/files to console
• Moved arrow to Suggests
