Create a Google Drive Audit Logs connection

Important

This feature is in Beta. Workspace admins can control access to this feature from the Previews page. See Manage Azure Databricks previews.

Create a Google Drive Audit Logs connection in Catalog Explorer to store authentication credentials for Lakeflow Connect ingestion. Any user with the USE CONNECTION privilege on the connection can then create Google Drive Audit Logs ingestion pipelines without needing direct access to the credentials.

Alternatively, admin users can create a connection and a pipeline at the same time in the data ingestion UI. See Ingest data from Google Workspace.

For privilege requirements, see Connect to managed ingestion sources.

Prerequisites

Complete the source setup. Use the credentials retrieved there to create the connection.

Create a connection

1. In the Azure Databricks workspace, click Catalog > Create > Create a connection.
2. On the Connection basics page of the Set up connection wizard, specify a Connection name.
3. In the Connection type drop-down menu, select Google Drive Audit Logs.
4. (Optional) Add a comment.
5. Click Next.
6. On the Authentication page, enter the following credentials from Configure authentication to Google Workspace:
   • Service Account JSON Key: Your GCP service-account key JSON.
   • Admin Email to Impersonate: Google Workspace admin email to impersonate using domain-wide delegation.
7. Click Create connection.
