Ingest from Netskope Logs in 3 steps

Start ingesting from Netskope Logs

  1. Configure Netskope for ingestion (Admins) — Set up Netskope to authenticate with Azure Databricks.
  2. Create a Unity Catalog connection (Admins) — Create a connection in Catalog Explorer so non-admins can create pipelines.
  3. Create an ingestion pipeline (Admins or non-admins) — Select any supported interface and create a pipeline from an existing connection.
