Get Catalog Details

Tool to retrieve details of a specific catalog in Unity Catalog. Use when you need to get information about a catalog including its metadata, owner, properties, and configuration. Requires metastore admin privileges, catalog ownership, or USE_CATALOG privilege.

Why this helps

New data documentation can reference catalogs whose ownership and properties are unclear.

  • Verifies referenced catalog metadata
  • Speeds documentation review
  • Creates a useful publication report

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 2Create an automation that extracts the catalog name from each new blog post and retrieves its details.
  • 3Pick New Blog Post Created as the trigger.
  • 4Choose where reports go and test with one data product post.

Questions about this workflow

What if the post references several catalogs?

Ask Notis to retrieve each explicitly named catalog and report any unresolved references.

Does it edit the blog post?
