The rfa (Request for Access) command group within the Databricks CLI contains commands to enable users to request access for Unity Catalog securables. These commands provide a standardized way for securable owners (or users with MANAGE privileges) to manage access request destinations.

databricks rfa batch-create-access-requests

Create access requests for Unity Catalog permissions for a specified principal on a securable object. This Batch API can take in multiple principals, securable objects, and permissions as the input and returns the access request destinations for each. Principals must be unique across the API call.

The supported securable types are: metastore, catalog, schema, table, external_location, connection, credential, function, registered_model, and volume.

databricks rfa batch-create-access-requests [flags]

Options

--json JSON

    The inline JSON string or the @path to the JSON file with the request body

Global flags

Examples

The following example creates multiple access requests using JSON:

databricks rfa batch-create-access-requests --json '{"requests": [{"principal": "user@example.com", "securable_type": "catalog", "securable_full_name": "my_catalog", "permissions": ["USE_CATALOG", "USE_SCHEMA"]}]}'

The following example creates access requests using a JSON file:

databricks rfa batch-create-access-requests --json @access-requests.json

databricks rfa get-access-request-destinations

Get access request destinations for the specified securable. Any caller can see URL destinations or the destinations on the metastore. Otherwise, only those with BROWSE permissions on the securable can see destinations.

The supported securable types are: metastore, catalog, schema, table, external_location, connection, credential, function, registered_model, and volume.

databricks rfa get-access-request-destinations SECURABLE_TYPE FULL_NAME [flags]

Arguments

SECURABLE_TYPE

    The type of the securable.

FULL_NAME

    The full name of the securable.

Options

Global flags

Examples

The following example gets access request destinations for a catalog:

databricks rfa get-access-request-destinations catalog my_catalog

The following example gets access request destinations for a table:

databricks rfa get-access-request-destinations table my_catalog.my_schema.my_table

databricks rfa update-access-request-destinations

Update the access request destinations for the given securable. The caller must be a metastore admin, the owner of the securable, or a user that has the MANAGE privilege on the securable in order to assign destinations.

Destinations cannot be updated for securables underneath schemas (tables, volumes, functions, and models). For these securable types, destinations are inherited from the parent securable. A maximum of 5 emails and 5 external notification destinations (Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Generic Webhook destinations) can be assigned to a securable. If a URL destination is assigned, no other destinations can be set.

The supported securable types are: metastore, catalog, schema, table, external_location, connection, credential, function, registered_model, and volume.

databricks rfa update-access-request-destinations UPDATE_MASK SECURABLE [flags]

Arguments

UPDATE_MASK

    The field mask must be a single string, with multiple fields separated by commas (no spaces). The field path is relative to the resource object, using a dot (.) to navigate sub-fields (e.g., author.given_name). Specification of elements in sequence or map fields is not allowed, as only the entire collection field can be specified. Field names must exactly match the resource field names.

    An asterisk (*) field mask indicates full replacement. It's recommended to always explicitly list the fields being updated and avoid using wildcards, as it can lead to unintended results if the API changes in the future.

SECURABLE

    The securable for which the access request destinations are being modified or read.

Options

--json JSON

    The inline JSON string or the @path to the JSON file with the request body

Global flags

Examples

The following example updates access request destinations for a catalog using JSON:

databricks rfa update-access-request-destinations "destinations" catalog:my_catalog --json '{"destinations": [{"email": "admin@example.com"}]}'

The following example updates access request destinations using a JSON file:

databricks rfa update-access-request-destinations "destinations" catalog:my_catalog --json @destinations.json
