Trigger

Action

Get External Location Details

Tool to retrieve details of a specific Unity Catalog external location. Use when you need to get information about an external location including its URL, storage credential, and configuration.

Why this helps

Teams lose time checking storage destinations manually before they can use new audience data.

  • Keep storage context close to the subscription event
  • Spot configuration or ownership issues early
  • Speed up audience export planning
