This guide walks you through configuring and authenticating the Databricks SQL Query tool in Airia, enabling your agents to execute SQL queries against your Databricks Lakehouse.

​
Prerequisites

To connect Airia to your Databricks SQL Warehouse, you will need the following details:
  • Warehouse Hostname
  • Warehouse HTTP Path
  • Warehouse Port (default: 443)
  • Personal Access Token (PAT) for an authenticated user.
💡 Note: It is recommended to use a user with least-privileges, specifically with read access and permissions to run SQL statements on your Warehouse.

​
Retrieve Databricks Connection Details

Follow these steps to obtain the necessary connection details from your Databricks account:
  1. Log in to your Databricks account.
  2. In the sidebar, select SQL Warehouses.
  3. Choose an active Warehouse that has access to the database schema you want to work with.
  4. Select Connection Details to view the Warehouse Hostname, HTTP Path, and Port.

Generate a Personal Access Token (PAT)

Airia tools for Databricks support authentication via a Personal Access Token (PAT).
  1. Log in to Databricks with the user account you intend to use for Airia (ensure it has appropriate permissions).
  2. Navigate to Settings (usually by clicking your username in the top right).
  3. Select Developer > Access Tokens.
  4. Click Manage and then Generate new token.
  5. Follow the prompts to create your PAT. Copy the token immediately as it will not be shown again.
For more detailed instructions on generating PATs, refer to the Databricks documentation on Personal Access Tokens.

​
Add and Configure the Databricks SQL Query Tool

  1. Add the Databricks SQL Query Tool:
    • Navigate to the Tools section in your Airia dashboard.
    • From the library, select Databricks SQL Query to add it to your project.
  2. Provide Connection Details:
    • On the tool configuration page, provide the values retrieved from your Databricks account:
      • Warehouse Hostname
      • Warehouse HTTP Path
      • Warehouse Port
    • For the Personal Access Token, you must add it as a new Credentials object. Select the appropriate credential type (e.g., Bearer Token or API Key) and paste your PAT.
  3. Save the Tool:
    • Click Save to add the configured tool to your library.

Next Steps

Now that the Databricks SQL Query tool is added, you can integrate it into an agent to execute queries against your Databricks database.
