Hi all, I’ve a lot of secrets on databricks, however my users are able to see it when they make a simple loop over the secret.

is there a way to prevent that?

Hey!, there is no way to prevent that, however, Databricks is launching Unity Catalog, over there you will be able to grant access to the tables instead of the connections or raw data.

Hi @David Burgos , not sure if you are aware of this already, but there are ACLs that can be enabled for databricks secrets:

This feature requires a premium plan though.

Do use the Databricks CLI or API 2.0 to manage secrets. Don't leave them in your notebooks for everyone to see, same applies for salting or hash strings.
