Unable to view hive_metastore schemas although I have the same permissions as co-workers who can

Hello! I'm having trouble accessing the schemas of the hive_metastore. I have the same level of permissions as my fellow coworkers who don't have any trouble viewing the schemas. Please I would really appreciate it if you could help me with this because my boss (admin) and I already tried lots of ways and I'm still unable to view the data!

Do you have a warehouse already running on your workspace? Once the warehouse is started and selected as the warehouse in the catalog explorer the data should load.

Yes! As you can see I have a running warehouse in my workspace but "No data" appears in the Catalog explorer... Any solution? Thank you in advance!

What permissions do you have on the Hive Metastore catalog?

Hi @manuel-barreiro 

Ask your Databricks workspace admin to grant permission to 'usage' and 'select' at both schema and table level. 

Also if you are on AWS or GCP cloud, ensure your role or account have same policies attached similar to your colleague.
