If you're catching up on Data + AI Summit 2026, here’s a simple Unity Catalog recap for data governance. Three themes stand out: Control, Context, and Choice. Control: Keep governance consistent as AI moves from access to action. AI governance at Dat...
I am using Databricks Apps, and I want to grant privileges to the auto-generated service principal from the app to read specific Unity Catalog schemas. I can't find a way to do this automatically using Asset Bundles.I prefer to query using a service ...
Why not to run a databricks cli script for first assign proper permissions (https://docs.databricks.com/aws/en/dev-tools/cli/reference/account-commands) and then run DAB? This was my approach to deploy some components not already available in previou...
Hello Team, We are building different KPIs on the Databricks Dashboard, the issue is: We have many pages which are part of the Dashboard, they are working but the issue is we are not able to navigate the pages with mouse if they are moving out of the...
Hello @saravjeet! You can check out this similar post: Databricks Dashboard Issue: No Mouse-Based Navigation When Dashboard Tabs Exceed the Top Ribbon If you’re using a mouse, you can navigate horizontally by: Holding Shift and scrolling with the mou...
Data Profile on a table is not a securable object in Unity Catalog or at Workspace level. This make the management of Data Profiles difficult for workspace admins.Why isn’t “profile” a securable object in Databricks? It makes sense to require “Manage...
Data profiling is a configuration you attach to a table. The output metric tables are Unity Catalog objects that you choose the schema for and can govern with UC privileges like any other table. The profile’s configuration and refresh history are wor...
Hello, I want to ask if there's a way to hide the Artifacts inside the Artifacts tab/prevent access to the Artifacts tab of a Model in a Delta Sharing catalog? So the case is that the receiving Delta Sharing workspace is only used for Model Serving (...
Hi,Removing EXECUTE does not hide artifacts.Model artifacts in Delta Sharing are accessible by design in the current implementation.When you share a UC model via Delta Sharing, the full model package is delivered:model weightsMLflow artifactscode / n...
we are switching over to Unity Catalog and attempting to confirm the ability to run our existing notebooks. I have created a new Shared Unity Catalog Cluster and ran the notebook using the new cluster. Ran into an error attempting to execute a prin...

Hi community, Recent days I created a SQL function into my unity catalog for my trusted assets in my genie space, I gave permission to my users accounts for they saw these function, however yesterday I modified my functions using the command "CREATE ...
Greetings @Dulce42 , this is a known gotcha with Unity Catalog functions: updating a function with CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION currently replaces the object and drops its grants, so downstream users lose EXECUTE permission and need to be re-granted. ...
Looking at Databricks’ suggested use of catalogs. My instincts are now leading me to the conclusion having separate metastore for each SDLC environment (dev, test, prod) is preferable. I think if this pattern were followed, this means due to current ...
Glad to see its not just me thinking about multiple metastores. Separate metastores by environment makes total sense. This would have complete isolation between environments, also in your dev, stg, prod you can reuse catalog names without having to u...
try build Delta sharing for PowerBI and OCI Automouns Database. connection it work but when pull data show error. So doesn't know if i use free version. go to Databricks delta sharing setting , add recipient show i need permission
Hello @FanMichelleTW ,Yes, this is most likely a limitation of the Databricks Free Edition. According to the documentation, this edition is intended for non-commercial use and includes several feature restrictions.In Delta Sharing, a recipient is an ...
Hey Databricks Community,I have applied USE CATALOG, USE SCHEMA and SELECT privilege to a table in the unity catalog. The grants shows only SELECT but I am able to do INSERT as well. Is this the expected behaviour ? or am missing something ?DELETE an...

Hi there,We are using Databricks and are in the early stages of adopting it. Recently, I noticed something in Databricks that caught my attention.I implemented column-level security, which works such that if you are a member of a particular group, yo...
Hey @F_Goudarzi , here are some things to think about: Is this a security issue? This is expected behavior: workspace admins have broad authority over workspace assets (including viewing notebook content). Row filters and column masks apply at quer...
hi..I want to use 1 all purpose cluster and use dynamic taging in each notebook.for example tag project and department.I want to be able to change the tag from the notebook so I will be able to understand the costs for each project and departme...
Greetings @pargit , Why Your Approach Isn't Working Cluster usage tags cannot be dynamically modified at runtime from within a notebook. The `spark.databricks.clusterUsageTags.` configurations are read-only properties set when the cluster is created...
Example: I wantColumns tagged sensitive_level = pii → masked for everyone.But if column is classification = email → allow users in group "see_email_group" to see it.Similar to tag:value classification = phone, email, tax_code,... Column Tag Descripti...
Something like following should work for your scenario. CREATE FUNCTION mask_email_tiered(value STRING) RETURN STRING RETURN CASE WHEN IS_MEMBER('admin') THEN value -- Full access WHEN IS_MEMBER('da_email') THEN value ...
I am excited to share that I recently published a whitepaper on how to leverage Databricks to build a robust data governance framework. This paper explores key strategies and best practices for implementing a strong governance model using Databricks'...
Hey @ArunKhandelwal , Thanks for sharing this with the community! Data governance is top of mind for so many of our customers, and having practical guidance on how to bring policy and control frameworks into Databricks is incredibly valuable. I’m lo...
We have been using the feature MLflow Model Registry Webhooks on Azure Databricks . Webhooks are in public preview, but oddly are deprecated at the same time with the introduction of Unity Catalog. The documentation says "For an alternative, see Can ...
Greetings @bragoarefur , Thanks for laying out the context so clearly—your read of the current state is spot on. Below is what the Databricks docs actually say, and a recommendation with an implementation path that avoids polling while staying cloud...
Hi everyone!I would love to know whether Databricks has the following capabilities and what are the core functionalities of the tool:Data glossary: provides clear definitions of business terms, ensuring that everyone in the organization uses the same...
Hi @DG1 - You can use AI to generate comments for your Unity Catalog Database objects. For the Data glossary, you can have specific roles in your organization to establish those standards. We do have business semantics (UC metrics Views) for a centra...
