Turn access threads into governed catalog changes
Use the thread as the decision record and let Notis apply the approved grants.
Trigger
New Thread Created
Triggered when a new thread is created in a Discord channel within a monitored server.
Action
Update Catalog Grants
Tool to update permissions for Unity Catalog securables by adding or removing privileges for principals. Use when you need to grant or revoke permissions on catalogs, schemas, tables, or other Unity Catalog objects. Only metastore admins, object owners, users with MANAGE privilege, or parent catalog/schema owners can update permissions.
Why this helps
Access decisions sit in chat while the actual grant update waits for manual work.
- Reduce access request backlog
- Preserve approval context
- Apply targeted grant changes
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Discord and Databricks once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation for approved catalog grant threads.
- 3Tell Notis to extract only explicitly approved grant additions or removals, identify the securable, and apply those changes.
- 4Pick New Thread Created as the trigger and choose where reports go.
- 5Test with one real approved thread.
Questions about this workflow
Can it remove grants too?
Yes. The action supports adding or removing privileges when the thread clearly approves the change.
What if the thread is ambiguous?
Ask Notis to report the ambiguity and wait for a clearer approval.
