Review Databricks catalog grants from Coda
Check the privileges directly assigned to a securable whenever its review page changes.
Trigger
Specific Coda Page Updated Trigger
Triggers when a specific page within a Coda document is updated.
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
Access reviews slow down when direct grants must be collected manually from the platform.
- Speeds direct grant reviews
- Separates direct from inherited access
- Creates a repeatable audit report
