# Databricks Volumes

> Configure the Unstructured Databricks Volumes destination connector to send processed data into a Databricks Volumes storage location.

<Tip>
  This article covers connecting Unstructured to Databricks Volumes.

  For information about connecting Unstructured to Delta Tables in Databricks instead, see
  [Delta Tables in Databricks](/api-reference/workflow/destinations/databricks-delta-table).

Send processed data from Unstructured to Databricks Volumes.

## Requirements

You will need:

* A Databricks account on [AWS](https://docs.databricks.com/getting-started/free-trial.html),
  [Azure](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/databricks/getting-started/), or
  [GCP](https://docs.gcp.databricks.com/getting-started/index.html).

* A workspace within the Databricks account for [AWS](https://docs.databricks.com/admin/workspace/index.html),
  [Azure](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/databricks/admin/workspace/), or
  [GCP](https://docs.gcp.databricks.com/admin/workspace/index.html).

* The workspace's URL. Get the workspace URL for
  [AWS](https://docs.databricks.com/workspace/workspace-details.html#workspace-instance-names-urls-and-ids),
  [Azure](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/databricks/workspace/workspace-details#workspace-instance-names-urls-and-ids),
  or [GCP](https://docs.gcp.databricks.com/workspace/workspace-details.html#workspace-instance-names-urls-and-ids).

  Examples:

  * AWS: `https://<workspace-id>.cloud.databricks.com`
  * Azure: `https://adb-<workspace-id>.<random-number>.azuredatabricks.net`
  * GCP: `https://<workspace-id>.<random-number>.gcp.databricks.com`

  <Note>
    Do not add a trailing slash (`/`) to the workspace URL.
  </Note>

* The Databricks authentication details. For more information, see the documentation for
  [AWS](https://docs.databricks.com/dev-tools/auth/index.html),
  [Azure](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/databricks/dev-tools/auth/),
  or [GCP](https://docs.gcp.databricks.com/dev-tools/auth/index.html).

  The following Databricks authentication types are supported:

  * Databricks OAuth machine-to-machine (M2M) authentication for\
    [AWS](https://docs.databricks.com/dev-tools/auth/oauth-m2m.html),
    [Azure](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/databricks/dev-tools/auth/oauth-m2m), or
    [GCP](https://docs.gcp.databricks.com/dev-tools/auth/oauth-m2m.html).

    You will need the **Client ID** (or **UUID** or **Application** ID) and OAuth **Secret** (client secret) values for the corresponding service principal.
    Note that for Azure, only Databricks managed service principals are supported. Microsoft Entra ID managed service principals are not supported.

    The following video shows how to create a Databricks managed service principal:

  * Databricks personal access token authentication for
    [AWS](https://docs.databricks.com/dev-tools/auth/pat.html),
    [Azure](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/databricks/dev-tools/auth/pat), or
    [GCP](https://docs.gcp.databricks.com/dev-tools/auth/pat.html).

    You will need the personal access token's value.

* The name of the parent catalog in Unity Catalog for
  [AWS](https://docs.databricks.com/catalogs/create-catalog.html),
  [Azure](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/databricks/catalogs/create-catalog), or
  [GCP](https://docs.gcp.databricks.com/catalogs/create-catalog.html) for the volume.

* The name of the parent schema (formerly known as a database) in Unity Catalog for
  [AWS](https://docs.databricks.com/schemas/create-schema.html),
  [Azure](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/databricks/schemas/create-schema), or
  [GCP](https://docs.gcp.databricks.com/schemas/create-schema.html) for the volume.

* The name of the volume in Unity Catalog for [AWS](https://docs.databricks.com/tables/managed.html),
  [Azure](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/databricks/tables/managed), or
  [GCP](https://docs.gcp.databricks.com/tables/managed.html), and optionally any path in that volume that you want to access directly, beginning with the volume's root.

* The Databricks workspace user or service principal must have the following *minimum* set of privileges to read from or write to the
  existing volume in Unity Catalog:

  * `USE CATALOG` on the volume's parent catalog in Unity Catalog.
  * `USE SCHEMA` on the volume's parent schema (formerly known as a database) in Unity Catalog.
  * `READ VOLUME` and `WRITE VOLUME` on the volume.

  The following videos show how to create and set privileges for a catalog, schema (formerly known as a database), and volume in Unity Catalog.

## Examples

To create a Databricks Volumes destination connector, see the following examples.

For more information on working with destination connectors using the Unstructured API, see [Destination endpoints](/api-reference/api/destination/destination-apis).

<CodeGroup>
  ```python Python SDK theme={null}
  import os

  from unstructured_client import UnstructuredClient
  from unstructured_client.models.operations import CreateDestinationRequest
  from unstructured_client.models.shared import CreateDestinationConnector

  with UnstructuredClient(api_key_auth=os.getenv("UNSTRUCTURED_API_KEY")) as client:
      response = client.destinations.create_destination(
          request=CreateDestinationRequest(
              create_destination_connector=CreateDestinationConnector(
                  name="<name>",
                  type="databricks_volumes",
                  config={

                      "schema": "<schema>",
                      "volume": "<volume>",
                      "volume_path": "<volume_path>",

                      # For Databricks OAuth machine-to-machine (M2M) authentication:

                  }
              )
          )
      )

      print(response.destination_connector_information)
  ```

  ```bash curl theme={null}
  curl --request 'POST' --location \
  "$UNSTRUCTURED_API_URL/sources" \
  --header 'accept: application/json' \
  --header "unstructured-api-key: $UNSTRUCTURED_API_KEY" \
  --header 'content-type: application/json' \
  --data \
  '{
      "name": "<name>",
      "type": "databricks_volumes",
      "config": {
          "host": "<host>",
          "catalog": "<catalog>",
          "schema": "<schema>",
          "volume": "<volume>",
          "volume_path": "<volume_path>",

          # For Databricks OAuth machine-to-machine (M2M) authentication:
          "client_secret": "<client-secret>",
          "client_id": "<client-id>"

          # For Databricks personal access token authentication:
