Review Databricks catalog details after sending

Keep catalog context available after you send data updates.

Trigger

New Sent Message

Action

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

Important catalog metadata gets separated from the email thread where decisions are made.

  • Keeps metadata tied to communication
  • Surfaces owner and properties
  • Improves handoff quality

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Outlook and Databricks in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation for sent catalog messages.
  • 3Tell Notis to identify the catalog from each sent message, retrieve its details, and summarize ownership and properties.
  • 4Pick New Sent Message as the trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real catalog update email.

Questions about this workflow

How does Notis know which catalog to inspect?

Include the exact catalog name in the sent message or automation instruction.
