Currently, we are connecting to Databricks from the RPD using a personal access token, which expires every 90 days. In OAC Data Visualization (DV) connections, the Databricks connection type supports only two authentication methods(Basic & Advanced). However, we requires OAuth as the connection type to eliminate the need for frequent token updates.

    You can override the OAuth token lifetime on Databricks

    Hi Brendan,

    Thanks for sharing the link. Yes, I went through the Databricks documentation — it does allow overriding the OAuth token lifetime using the CLI for partner or custom OAuth integrations.

    However, in our case, the OAC Databricks connector currently supports only Basic and Advanced authentication methods, and does not yet support OAuth. So, even if we configure longer-lived OAuth tokens on the Databricks side, OAC wouldn’t be able to leverage them until Oracle adds OAuth support for this connector.

    We can raise an Enhancement Request (ER) with Oracle Product Management to include OAuth authentication support in a future release.
