Find mismatches between access records and direct grants

Get a focused review of direct Databricks grants alongside the parsed access records your team already keeps.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Get Catalog Grants

Retrieves permissions assigned directly to a securable object.

Why this helps

Permission checks take time when direct grants and the access documents describing them live in separate places.

  • Bring direct grant details and parsed records into one scheduled review.
  • Surface differences that need human confirmation.
  • Reduce the effort of assembling a permissions audit.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Airparser and Databricks once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to retrieve direct Unity Catalog grants and compare them with the relevant Airparser-parsed access records, reporting discrepancies and records it cannot match.
  • 4Choose notis_cron as the trigger and set the review schedule, then choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and verify that the compared records and reported mismatches are relevant.

Questions about this workflow

What kind of grants does this workflow review?

The selected Databricks action retrieves grants directly assigned to a Unity Catalog securable. It does not include inherited permissions.

Does the workflow change permissions?

No. This workflow retrieves grant information and reports comparisons; it does not modify grants.

What if Airparser records do not identify the securable or principal clearly?

The instruction should have Notis report unmatched or ambiguous records instead of treating them as confirmed matches.
