Review effective Databricks permissions after profile changes
Catch access drift while subscriber data is still fresh in your workflow.
Trigger
Profile Update Trigger
Triggered when a subscriber's profile is updated in Mailchimp
Action
Get Effective Catalog Permissions
Tool to get effective permissions for a securable in Unity Catalog, including inherited permissions from parent securables. Use when you need to understand what privileges are granted to principals through direct assignments or inheritance. Returns privileges conveyed to each principal through the Unity Catalog hierarchy (metastore → catalog → schema → table/view/volume).
Why this helps
Permission drift can quietly block enrichment or expose data to the wrong principals.
- See direct and inherited privileges together
- Spot access changes near the source event
- Give operators a clear review summary
