Hi @VGS777, To achieve your use case, you can use Terraform along with the Databricks provider.

Here are the steps:

1. Create a User in Databricks Workspace: You can use the databricks_user resource to create a new user in your Databricks workspace. Specify the user’s email address and any other relevant details.

2. Assign Roles: You can associate roles with the user using the databricks_group_member resource. For example, if you have an existing group called “admins,” you can add the user to it.

3. Assign Cluster: If you want to assign a specific cluster to the user, you can use the databricks_cluster resource. Specify the cluster details and associate it with the user.

4. Scheduled Deletion: To delete the user and associated resources after 12 hours, you’ll need to implement a custom solution. You can use external tools (e.g., a script or a scheduler) to trigger the Terraform destroy operation after the specified time.

You can find more details in the official Terraform documentation. Good luck with your Terraform journey! 🚀👍
