Ingest from Veeva Vault in 3 steps

  1. Configure Veeva Vault for ingestion (Admins) — Set up Veeva Vault 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.
