Databricks Certified Data Analyst Associate — Question 50

A data analyst needs to share a Databricks SQL dashboard with stakeholders that are not permitted to have accounts in the Databricks deployment. The stakeholders need to be notified every time the dashboard is refreshed.

Which approach can the data analyst use to accomplish this task with minimal effort?

Answer options

• A. By granting the stakeholders’ email addresses permissions to the dashboard
• B. By adding the stakeholders’ email addresses to the refresh schedule subscribers list
• C. By granting the stakeholders’ email addresses to the SQL Warehouse (formerly known as endpoint) subscribers list
• D. By downloading the dashboard as a PDF and emailing it to the stakeholders each time it is refreshed

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as adding stakeholders' email addresses to the refresh schedule subscribers list allows them to receive automatic notifications when the dashboard is refreshed without needing accounts. Options A and C do not fulfill the requirement of notifying stakeholders without accounts, and option D is inefficient as it requires manual effort each time the dashboard is updated.
