Databricks -->Workflows-->Job Runs

[sreedata]

In Databricks -->Workflows-->Job Runs we have a column "Run As".

From where does this value come. We are getting a user id here but need to change it to a generic account. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

@srikanth nair​  When a user creates a job, that particular user email will be added to Run As. When the job runs, it will use this user's permissions. If you want to change it you can change it by transferring the job ownership.

Please refer to the doc for changing the job permission.

@srikanth nair​ we are working on the capability to specify a generic account aka Service Principle when running a Job. Stay tuned!

I'm surprised why there no options to select "Run as" as something like "system user". Why all this complication with Service Principal? 
Where to report this ?
