Use other supported IdPs for Databricks OAuth via OAuth token federation

Using OAuth token federation, you can now use other supported identity providers to authenticate to Databricks. Previously, you could only authenticate with Databricks as your identity provider.

See Configure Databricks OAuth token federation for more information.

Reports

Use custom page sizes in reports

You can now specify custom page sizes in reports.

For more information, see Edit report page setup, headers, and footers (Beta).

Search and discovery

My documents and Shared with me renamed

The following sections of the product have been renamed:

  • My documents is now Documents
  • Shared with me is now Shared with you

The functionality of these sections remains the same.

User profile

Added warning banner for OAuth token expiration

If you access data from a connection that uses OAuth to authorize you, a banner now appears 3 days before your OAuth session expires. You can sign in from the banner to reauthorize your session and avoid losing access to data.

Workbook elements

Create ad hoc calculations (Beta)

Adding ad hoc calculated rows in pivot tables is now supported. This allow you to perform one-off calculations in a pivot table row, without modifying the underlying dataset or restructuring your pivot table.

For more information, see Create ad hoc calculations (Beta).

Repeated container (Beta)

The repeated container is a layout element that connects to a data source. For each row in the data source, the repeated container generates a layout card, allowing you to quickly generate identical, dynamic layouts from your data.

For more information, see Use repeated containers to generate layouts from data.

Single row container (Beta)

The single row container is a layout element that connects to a data source. By selecting a key column and value, you can choose a row from the data source to display inside the container, allowing for dynamic, focused views at individual rows.

For more information, see Use single row containers to show records in detail and Create actions that control single row containers.

Value list (Beta)

Add a value list element to create an organized display of details from a data source. You can customize the value list to show custom formula results, control values, static values, and more. When paired with a single row container, you can create a dynamic list that shows individual records from a data based on user input.

For more information, see Value lists.
