How to send automated emails from Databricks notebooks based on conditions or events?

Hi everyone,

I’m currently exploring how to replicate something similar to Alteryx Email Activity within Databricks.

Basically, I want to send automated emails to specific users when certain conditions or events occur in a notebook workflow  for example:

  • If a data validation check fails

  • If a specific event or threshold is triggered

  • Or based on an output result from a query or job

Is there any native or recommended approach in Databricks to achieve this?
I’m thinking of something like:

“If this event happens → send an email to that person automatically.”

Has anyone implemented this kind of conditional email notification system in Databricks?
Would appreciate any suggestions or best practices for setting this up.

Thanks,
