This article explains how you can use the Databricks Jobs API to grant a single group permission to access all the jobs in your workspace.

Instructions

Use the following sample code to give a specific group of users permission for all the jobs in your workspace.

1. Start a cluster in your workspace and attach a notebook.
2. Copy and paste the sample code into a notebook cell.
3. Update the <workspace-domain-name> and <personal-access-token> values.
4. Update the <permissions-to-assign> (AWS | Azure | GCP) value.
5. Update the <group-name> value with the name of the user group you are granting permissions.
6. Run the notebook cell.

%python

shard_url = "<workspace-domain-name-without-backslash>"
access_token = "<personal-access-token>"
group_name = "<group-name>"
headers_auth = {
 'Authorization': f'Bearer {access_token}'
}
job_list_url = shard_url+"/api/2.1/jobs/list"
jobs_list = requests.request("GET", job_list_url, headers=headers_auth).json()
for job in jobs_list['jobs']:   
    job_id = job['job_id']
    job_change_url = shard_url+"/api/2.0/preview/permissions/jobs/"+str(job_id)
    payload_pause_schedule = json.dumps({
    "access_control_list": [
        {
        "group_name":group_name,
        "permission_level": "<permission-to-assign>"
        }
        ]
        })
    response = requests.request("PATCH", job_change_url, headers=headers_auth, data=payload_pause_schedule)
    
print("Permissions Updated")
