Hi @shrikant_kulkar, Based on the information provided, no explicit plans are mentioned for adding a C# connector.

However, Microsoft is reportedly building a connector that they will support, but it's not specified that this connector is specifically for C#. Currently, there are a couple of alternate ways to connect to Databricks.

1. Power BI Connector: The new Power BI connector for Azure Databricks is now GA. It provides simple connection configuration, authentication based on Azure Active Directory credentials, and faster imports and optimized metadata calls thanks to the new ODBC driver.
 
2. Delta Sharing Connector for Power BI: This connector allows users to discover, analyze and visualize shared data sets through the Delta Sharing open protocol.

3. Tableau Connector: A new version of the Databricks connector in Tableau 2021.

Four was released, which adds support for navigating a three-level namespace in the Unity Catalog.

hey @Kaniz_Fatma thanks for the details. Can you please provide additional details or point of contact for team building connector for delta sharing in Microsoft?
