Review direct catalog grants before the audit

Prepare an audit-ready view of who has direct privileges on reporting data.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Get Catalog Grants

Tool to get permissions (grants) for a securable in Unity Catalog without inherited permissions. Use when you need to see direct privilege assignments on a catalog or other securable object. Returns only privileges directly assigned to principals, excluding inherited permissions from parent securables. For inherited permissions, use the get-effective endpoint instead.

Why this helps

Direct grants are easy to miss when permissions are reviewed only through inherited access.

  • Separate direct grants from inherited access
  • Speed up audit preparation
  • Create a repeatable review record

  • 1Connect 7shifts and Databricks in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation for the direct grants review.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve grants for the named catalogs, schemas, or tables and summarize risks.
  • 4Pick a Notis cron schedule and choose where reports go.
  • 5Test it with one real audit scope.
