Create a Netskope Logs connection

Beta

This feature is in Beta. Workspace admins can control access to this feature from the Previews page. See Manage Databricks previews.

Create a Netskope Logs connection in Catalog Explorer to store authentication credentials for Lakeflow Connect ingestion. Any user with the USE CONNECTION privilege on the connection can then create Netskope Logs ingestion pipelines without needing direct access to the credentials.

Alternatively, administrator users can create a connection and a pipeline at the same time in the data ingestion UI. See Ingest data from Netskope Logs.

For privilege requirements, see Connect to managed ingestion sources.

Prerequisites

Complete the source setup. Use the credentials you obtain to create the connection.

Create a connection

  1. In the Databricks workspace, click Data icon. Catalog > Create > Create a connection.
  2. On the Connection basics page of the Set up connection wizard, specify a Connection name.
  3. In the Connection type drop-down menu, select Netskope Logs.
  4. (Optional) Add a comment.
  5. Click Next.
  6. On the Authentication page, enter the following credentials from Configure authentication to Netskope:
    • Domain: The domain address of your Netskope tenant, including the scheme (http or https) and without a trailing slash. For example, https://your-tenant.goskope.com.
    • API Token: The secure credential that authenticates your application with the Netskope Events API.
  7. Click Create connection.
