SQL settings
The admin settings page includes a tab for SQL Settings. These settings control the Databricks SQL presentation and behavior for all Databricks SQL users in your organization. These settings include:
Date & Time Format: The default date and time formats in query visualizations. To change date and time formats for an individual query visualization, see Common data types.
Visualization: Whether to display the Plotly toolbar in chart visualizations.
Download: Whether to allow users to download query results.
Dashboard subscriptions: Enable users to subscribe to dashboards in the workspace.
Failure emails: Decide which owners are emailed when refresh schedules fail.
Language: Whether to enable multi-byte (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) search for query names and descriptions. When enabled, searches are slower.
SAML Token Expiry Warning: Whether to prompt the user to log in again if you use SAML authentication and their SAML token will expire within a few minutes. This helps to prevent disruption when running queries or refreshing dashboards if you require a SAML token to run queries. You can disable this option if you do not require SAML tokens to run queries.
Workspace Colors: Create a custom color palette for visualizations in dashboards. All workspace users can optionally import this custom palette for an individual dashboard.
