Databricks Connection to Redash

[Karene]

Hello,

I am trying to connect my Redash account with Databricks so that my organization can run queries on the data in Unity Catalog from Redash.

I followed through the steps in the documentation and managed to connect successfully. However, I am only able to access hive_metastore tables - none of the tables or schemas from Unity Catalog show up in redash.

I am guessing this is more a Databricks issue than a Redash one, as the connection with the Databricks SQL Warehouse has been established and is working. For some reason, the SQL Warehouse is only picking up the hive_metastore data and not Unity Catalog data. The SQL Warehouse is already Unity Catalog enabled.

Any tips on how to handle this would be much appreciated!

Thank you!

it looks like the Redash connector for Databricks is hard-coded to run `SHOW DATABASES`, which only shows `hive_metastore` by default. This probably needs to be updated to run `SHOW CATALOGS` and then `SHOW SCHEMAS in <catalog_name>` for each of those, and compose a list of catalog/schema combinations.
