This article explains how to connect a Databricks Table with Pigment using the Delta Share solution.

As with all native Pigment integrations, you must first configure a connection on the **Integration Library**page. Once configured, the connection can then be used by any Application authorized as a data source.

## Overview

This native integration with Databricks uses Delta Sharing ([Azure](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/databricks/delta-sharing/), [AWS](https://docs.databricks.com/aws/en/delta-sharing/), [GCP](https://docs.databricks.com/gcp/en/delta-sharing/)). [Delta Sharing](https://delta.io/sharing/) is an [open protocol](https://github.com/delta-io/delta-sharing/blob/main/PROTOCOL.md) developed by Databricks for secure data sharing with other organizations regardless of the computing platforms they use. To set up the integration, [first create and configure a Share](https://docs.databricks.com/aws/en/delta-sharing/create-share) on Databricks. Then [grant access to Pigment](https://docs.databricks.com/aws/en/delta-sharing/grant-access) to enable data sharing.

Next, configure a connection in the Pigment integrations panel and select the Applications that can use this connection.

## Step 1: Set up the Databricks Share and Recipient

First, prepare a Databricks Share containing the data you want to make available through Delta Sharing.

1. If a Share is not yet available, follow [these steps](https://docs.databricks.com/aws/en/delta-sharing/create-share#create-a-share-object) to create a new Share in Databricks. Select all the data objects you need to make available for Pigment in the [**Add data assets**](https://docs.databricks.com/aws/en/delta-sharing/create-share#add-tables-to-a-share)****step**.**
2. When the Share is ready for use, you will need to [Grant recipient access](https://docs.databricks.com/aws/en/delta-sharing/grant-access#grant-recipient-access-to-share&gsc.tab=0) to a Recipient which will be used by Pigment. In the **Add recipient**panel in Databricks, select **Open** as **Recipient** type and **Token** and authentication method.

1. You can copy and share the activation link generated.

1. Select the link and download the credential file.
2. Select the recipient you created and [grant them access to the Share](https://docs.databricks.com/aws/en/delta-sharing/grant-access#grant-recipient-access-to-share) you have configured.

> [!NOTE]
> ℹ️ Note
> 
> To enhance security, Databricks supports restricting token usage to defined IP ranges. Specify the following IP addresses in the **IP access**section of the **Recipient** configured for Pigment.
> 
> 
> 
> - 35.242.251.111
> - 34.145.54.113
> - 34.163.209.119
> - 35.202.142.12

## Step 2: Set up the Connector in Pigment

> [!WARNING]
> **⚠️****Important**
> 
> You must be a [Pigment Workspace Admin](https://community.gopigment.com/getting-started-86/how-to-add-users-and-modify-account-types-in-pigment-286) to configure the connector.

When you have your Databricks credentials set up, you can set up the connector in Pigment.

To do this:

1. In your **Workspace**, go to **Integrations**.
2. Select **+ Add** on the **Databricks Delta Sharing** integration and fill in the information about the connection, this includes the **Name**, **Application access**, and **Delta Sharing profile**
  - **Name**. Enter the name of your connection.
  - **Application access**. Select the Applications to allow using this connection.
  - **Delta Sharing profile.**Copy and paste the contents of the Delta Sharing profile JSON file downloaded at the previous step.

> [!NOTE]
> ℹ️ **Note**
> 
> If the token expires or needs to be rotated, edit the connection and replace the expired Delta Share profile. For more information, see [Edit Pigment Integrations](https://kb.pigment.com/docs/edit-pigment-integration-connections).

## Step 3: Load Databricks data into Pigment

After the Databricks Delta Sharing connection is configured, access an Application linked to this connection and open the **Import Data** panel for the relevant object.

For example, if you are importing data into a Transaction List, you would open the List and select **Import and Download**and then**Import**.

To do this:

1. Select **Import**, then select **Integration**.
2. Select the Databricks Delta Share connection you just configured.

> [!NOTE]
> ℹ️ **Note**
> 
> If you don’t see the connection, go to **Integrations** and confirm that the Application is on the Application Access list.

1. From the dropdown menus, select the **Share**, **Schema**and **Table** you want to load in Pigment. Pigment will automatically discover these fields based on the Recipient and Share configuration you’ve set up. If you think a Table is missing, check the Share and Recipient configuration with your Databricks Admin.
2. Select **Start Import**, the selected table will load in Pigment within seconds.

> [!WARNING]
> ⚠️ Important
> 
> The Databricks Delta Sharing integration has the following limits:
> 
> - Tables: up to 1 GiB
> - Views: up to 100k rows (any additional rows are truncated or ignored)
