Connect Databricks to Bruin with Per-User OAuth

Create a Databricks OAuth app, register it in Bruin, and let every user query as themselves — with their own Unity Catalog permissions enforced.

Query as yourself

With per-user OAuth, Bruin never shares a single service credential across your team. Each user authorizes with their own Databricks identity, so every query runs with that user's Unity Catalog grants — nothing more, nothing less.

Open the Databricks account console

In your Databricks workspace, click the workspace switcher in the top-right corner and select "Manage account". OAuth apps are created at the account level, not inside a workspace.

You need Databricks account admin permissions to create OAuth app connections.
