connectionKeyThe connectionKey is a unique identifier for the collection of data sources being created. If an existing connectionKey is used with new connection information, it will delete the old data sources and create new ones from the new information in the payload.

nameTemplatedataSourceFormat
string Format to be used to name the data sources created in this group.
schemaFormat
string Format to be used to name the Immuta schema created in this group.
tableFormat
string Format to be used to name the Immuta table created in this group.
schemaProjectNameFormat
string Format to be used to name the Immuta schema project created in this group.
Available templates include
<tablename>
<schema>
<database>
All cases of the name in Immuta should be lowercase.
For example, consider a table TPC.CUSTOMER that is given the following nameTemplate:
This nameTemplate will produce a data source named tpc.customer in a schema project named tpc.
optionsstaleDataTolerance
integer The length in seconds that data for these sources can be cached.
disableSensitiveDataDiscovery
domainCollectionId
hardDelete
boolean If true, when the table backing the data source is no longer available, the data source in Immuta is deleted. If this is false, the data source will be disabled. Default: false.
tableTags
array An array of tags (strings) to place at the data source level on every data source.
ownerstype
group or user The type of owner that is being added.
name
string The name of the group or the user (username they log in with).
iam (optional)
string The ID of the identity manager system the user or group comes from. If excluded, any user/group that matches will be added as an owner.
sourcesBest practice: Use Subscription Policies to Control Access
If you are not tagging individual columns, omit sources to create data sources for all tables in the schema or database, and then use Subscription Policies to control access to the tables instead of excluding them from Immuta.
This attribute configures which sources are created. If sources is not provided, all sources from the given connection will be created.
There are 3 types of sources than can be specified:
If you specify any sources (either tables or queries), but you still want to create data sources for the rest of the tables in the schema or database, you can specify all as a source:
Best practice: Use schema monitoring
Excluding sources or specifying all: true will turn on automatic schema monitoring in Immuta. As tables are added or removed, Immuta will look for those changes on a schedule (by default, once a day) and either disable or delete data sources for removed tables or create data sources for new tables. New tables will be tagged New so that you can build a policy to restrict access to new tables until they are evaluated by data owners. Data owners will be notified of new tables, and all subscribers will be notified if data sources are disabled or deleted.
Immuta recommends creating a view in your native database instead of using this option, but if that is not possible, you can create data sources based on SQL statements:
If you want to select specific tables to be created as data sources, or if you want to tag individual data sources or columns within a data source, you need to leverage this parameter:
When specifying a table or query there are other options that can be specified:
columnDescriptions
description
A short description for the data source.
documentation
Markdown-supported documentation for the data source.
naming
owners
Specify owners for an individual data source. The payload is the same as owners at the root level.
tags
If any columns are specified, those are the only columns that will be available in the data source.
If no columns are specified, Immuta will look for new or removed columns on a schedule (by default, once a day) and add or remove columns from the data sources automatically as needed.
New columns will be tagged New, so you can build a policy to automatically mask new columns until they are approved.
Data Owners will be notified when columns are added or removed.
columns is an array of objects for each column:
name
The column name.
dataType
The data type.
nullable
Whether or not the column contains null.
remoteType
The actual data type in the remote database.
primaryKey
Specify whether this is the primary key of the remote table.
description
Describe the column.
You can add descriptions to columns without having to specify all the columns in the data source. columnDescriptions is an array of objects with the following schema:
columnName
string The column name.
description
string The description of the column.
You can add tags to columns or data sources. tags is an object with the following schema:
table
array An array of tags (strings) to add to this table.
columns
array An array of objects that specifies columnName (string) and tags (an array to tags).
clientSecret The scope limits the operations and roles allowed in Databricks by the access token. See the for details about scopes.
boolean If true, Immuta will not perform . Default: false.
string The ID of the domain to assign the data sources to. Use the to retrieve domains and domain IDs.
.
See the example above in . This is required for query-based sources, but is optional for table-based sources and can be used to override the nameTemplate provided for the whole database/schema.
