pyspark.sql.SparkSession.client

property SparkSession.client

Gives access to the Spark Connect client. In normal cases this is not necessary to be used and only relevant for testing.

Added in version 3.4.0.

Returns:

SparkConnectClient

Notes

This API is unstable, and a developer API. It returns non-API instance SparkConnectClient. This is an API dedicated to Spark Connect client only. With regular Spark Session, it throws an exception.
