Handle workspace metastore assignment changes

Route a clear assignment request into Databricks with the target workspace context and approved metastore or default catalog value stated up front.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Update Metastore Assignment

Updates the metastore or default catalog assigned to a workspace.

Why this helps

Workspace assignment changes can become confusing when the requested metastore or default catalog is buried in a handoff.

  • Process a specific assignment update request.
  • Keep workspace and requested values explicit.
  • Return a report that supports the handoff.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Adtraction and Databricks once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis which assignment to update and provide the approved metastore ID or default catalog value.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one reviewed update and confirm the required account or workspace privileges.

Questions about this workflow

Can it assign a metastore if one is not assigned yet?

This action updates an assignment that already exists. Use the separate assign action when creating a new assignment is the intended outcome.

Are the same permissions required for every field?

No. The action description says account admin privileges are required to update the metastore ID, while a workspace admin can update the default catalog name.
