Explanation
In Databricks, the Data Explorer is the correct location to review permissions on Delta tables. Here's why:
-
Data Explorer is Databricks' interface for browsing and managing data assets including tables, views, and databases.
-
Within Data Explorer, you can:
- Navigate to specific tables
- View table details and metadata
- Check and manage permissions through the Permissions tab
- See what access rights you have (SELECT, MODIFY, CREATE, etc.)
-
The other options are incorrect because:
- Databricks Filesystem (DBFS): Used for file storage, not for table permission management
- Jobs: Interface for creating and managing job workflows
- Dashboards: For creating and viewing data visualizations and reports
- Repos: For version control and collaborative development
-
Best Practice: When working with Delta tables in Databricks, always check Data Explorer to verify your permissions before attempting operations that might fail due to insufficient privileges.
Note: The answer provided in the source text (E) is correct.
