Connect GX Cloud to Databricks SQL

Prerequisites

Connect to a Databricks SQL Data Source and add a Data Asset

  1. In GX Cloud, click Data Assets > New Data Asset > New Data Source > Databricks SQL.

  2. Enter a meaningful name for the Data Source in the Data Source name field.

  3. Enter a connection string in the Connection string field. The connection string format is:

    Databricks SQL connection string
    databricks://token:{token}@{host}:{port}?http_path={http_path}&catalog={catalog}&schema={schema}

    If you created a separate Databricks SQL service principal for your GX Cloud connection as recommended above, use those credentials in the connection string.

  4. Click Connect.

  5. Select one or more tables to import as Data Assets.

  6. Click Add x Asset(s).

  7. Decide which common data quality issues you want to start monitoring. By default, GX Cloud adds Expectations to detect Schema and Volume issues. You can de-select recommendations you’d like to opt out of.

  8. Click Start monitoring or Finish.
