Configure Data Sharing with Databricks using Console UI

Learn how to configure Data Sharing with Databricks in the Reltio Console UI.

Prerequisites:

  • Reltio user with the role ROLE_DATA_PIPELINE_ADMIN
  • Valid Databricks delta sharing identifier
  • An active subscription for Data Sharing with Databricks
Note: While creating a new data share, ensure you provide a unique name for the data share that does not match any existing or deleted data shares.

Use the following steps in the Reltio Console to configure a Databricks Delta Share and define the target location for data delivery.

  1. In the Reltio Console, open the Data Sharing application.
    For navigation details, see Data Sharing at a glance.
  2. Select + NEW DATA SHARE and select Databricks.
  3. Enter configuration details for the Databricks workspace.

    Fill in the configuration fields as follows:

    FieldValue
    NameEnter a unique identifier for the data share. Must be 3–20 alphanumeric characters with no spaces.
    Sharing identifierEnter the delta sharing identifier of the target Databricks environment. To find the sharing identifier using Catalog Explorer of your Databricks environment, check the following link - Get access in the Databricks-to-Databricks model.
    Share OV values onlySelect this option to share only operational values (OV), which simplifies the schema to a flat format.

    Leave unchecked to share all values, including non-operational values. This shares the data in the hierarchical format.

  4. Select Save to create the data share.
    Wait for a few seconds. The Data Share changes its status from Not created yet to Active. Reltio provisions the Databricks share using Delta Sharing.

Your data share is now configured, and the recipient can access the Delta Lake tables through their Databricks Unity Catalog under Delta Sharing.

Ensure that the Databricks recipient has the necessary metastore permissions to accept the data share. Grant the USE SHARE, USE PROVIDER, USE RECIPIENT, and CREATE CATALOG permissions to the recipient using the following commands:
GRANT USE SHARE ON METASTORE TO `<user-email-address>`;
GRANT USE PROVIDER ON METASTORE TO `<user-email-address>`;
GRANT USE RECIPIENT ON METASTORE TO `<user-email-address>`;
GRANT CREATE CATALOG ON METASTORE TO `<user-email-address>`;
