Delta Live Tables permissions

There are five permissions for Delta Live Tables: No Permissions, Can View, Can Run, Can Manage, and Is Owner. The table lists the abilities for each permission. Admins are granted the Can Manage permission by default.

Clusters are not re-used between pipeline owners.

Delta Live Tables owner

The pipeline creator is granted the Is Owner permission by default. Each execution of a pipeline assumes the permissions of the user with Is Owner permission on the pipeline and not the user who started the update. All update actions, for example, fetching notebooks, creating clusters, and running queries, are executed as the pipeline owner. Only workspace admins can change the pipeline owner and Is Owner cannot be granted to a group.
