Action

Update Catalog Grants

Tool to update permissions for Unity Catalog securables by adding or removing privileges for principals. Use when you need to grant or revoke permissions on catalogs, schemas, tables, or other Unity Catalog objects. Only metastore admins, object owners, users with MANAGE privilege, or parent catalog/schema owners can update permissions.

Why this helps

Catalog privileges can remain attached to old responsibilities after team changes.

  • Align access with current responsibilities
  • Apply only the approved grants
  • Keep each change traceable

  • 3Tell Notis which privileges to add or revoke for the named securable after the staffing event.
