Hi @Clara ,I don't think so. But you can build history such history tables by yourself. Desing ETL process that will extract data from system tables and store them in your own data tables.

This will be extremely beneficial. We have certain use cases where we do not leverage Spark in our pipelines and lose the lineage. I would prefer to set an extra parameter when writing a table to specify the lineage.

Hi @parasupadhyay ,I don't think there is much you can do. For security reasons, you can't use shared access mode in UC to access sparkContext. Your only option to make it work is to use single mode cluster.
