Setup Databricks Unity Catalog on Privacera Portal

These steps apply to both Self-Managed and Data Plane deployments..

  1. For Self-Managed, log in to the Privacera Portal; for Data Plane, log in to the Privacera Discovery Admin Console.
  2. Navigate to Settings > Data Source Registration
  3. Under the system name you added here, click the more icon. Select Add Application > JDBC APPLICATION
  4. Under Configure JDBC Application, provide values for the Application Name and Application Code fields.
  5. Under Application Properties, provide values for the following:

    • JDBC Url: jdbc:databricks://hostname:<port>/default;transportMode=http;ssl=1;AuthMech=3;httpPath=/sql/1.0/warehouses/xxxxxxxx;

    • JDBC Username: <user_with_readwrite_permission>

    • JDBC Password: <login_credentials_of_identified_user>

    • JDBC Driver Class: com.databricks.client.jdbc.Driver

    Important

    Identify the user who must have appropriate permissions in your data source. For scanning, you need a user with read permission, and for processing compliance policies, you need read and write permissions. Also user must have the following permissions on the System catalog:

    USE CATALOG: This allows access to the System catalog.

    USE SCHEMA: This permits access to specific schemas within the System catalog.

    These permissions can be provided by either a Metastore Admin or an Admin User. For more information, click here.

    Tip

    You don't need to update any other fields during the initial setup. You can update them later as needed.

  6. Click TEST CONNECTION. Ensure that a message named success is displayed.

  7. Click SAVE

You can start using the connector to scan Databricks Unity Catalog resources by configuring the targets to be scanned. For more information, refer to the Setup for Discovery Scanning
