Explanation
In Databricks, the Catalog Explorer is the correct location to review permissions on Delta tables. Here's why:
- Catalog Explorer is Databricks' interface for browsing and managing data objects in Unity Catalog, including tables, views, and schemas.
- When you navigate to a specific table in Catalog Explorer, you can view and manage permissions through the Permissions tab.
- This interface allows users to see what privileges they have on a table (SELECT, MODIFY, CREATE, etc.) and who granted those permissions.
Why other options are incorrect:
- A. Jobs: This is for managing and monitoring job executions, not for reviewing table permissions.
- B. Dashboards: This is for creating and viewing business intelligence dashboards, not for managing data permissions.
- D. Repos: This is for version control and managing code repositories, not for reviewing table permissions.
How to check permissions in Catalog Explorer:
- Navigate to Catalog in the Databricks workspace
- Browse to the specific table
- Click on the table to open its details
- Select the Permissions tab to view current permissions
This approach aligns with Databricks' data governance model where Unity Catalog provides centralized access control and permission management for all data assets.
