Is there any way to see who ran a notebook?

I'm trying to find information to see who runs a notebook. I'm able to see who created the notebook, and I can find out when the notebook is ran, but there doesn't seem to be any information on who ran it, only who created the notebook.

SELECT * FROM system.logs WHERE event_type = 'notebook_run' ORDER BY timestamp DESC;@KrisMcDougal with this code you can check from which user id the first command of the notebook got started and you will get to know who started the notebook.

Impact of Overwriting Databricks SQL Tables on Versioning

None of these solutions with coalesce work because it's "match_result.ecommerce" that is null not "match_result.ecommerce.has_online_payments". So it's still trying to extract a value from a null. Help me modify the query accordingly please.
