Understand effective access to a Databricks securable
See direct and inherited permissions alongside the access guidance your team follows, then send one report for review.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Effective Catalog Permissions
Retrieves effective permissions, including inherited access.
Why this helps
Inherited access can make a permissions review harder to understand when the relevant policy and grants are reviewed separately.
- Bring published policy context into an access review.
- Retrieve effective permissions, including inherited grants.
- Identify possible mismatches for a person to assess.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Agenty and Databricks once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language.
- 3Specify the policy pages to inspect and the securable whose effective permissions Databricks should retrieve.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real securable and verify inherited permissions appear in the report.
Questions about this workflow
How is this different from a direct grants review?
This workflow retrieves effective permissions, which include permissions inherited from parent securables.
Will it revoke access that looks inconsistent?
No. It reports the information for review and does not change permissions.
