Review catalog grants when governance is flagged
Turn a governance phrase into a focused permissions review.
Trigger
Keyword Detected in Document
Triggers when a specific keyword or phrase first appears in a Google Doc. This trigger monitors a Google Doc and fires once when the specified keyword is detected. After the keyword is found, the trigger will not fire again until reset.
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
Teams record a governance concern in a document but postpone checking the actual grants.
- Surface direct grants quickly
- Reduce permission blind spots
- Tie audits to written governance signals
