Hi all, I'm forwarding to the ML a question raised by a user [1] regarding Polaris's behavior when contacting an external (federated) REST catalog.
The core question is: does Polaris forward access delegation headers to the remote catalog? Based on my understanding, *it does not*. My current belief is that credentials vended for a federated catalog are still minted locally by Polaris. This leads to a more fundamental question I've been pondering: why is the federated catalog not responsible for minting its own credentials in this scenario? I'd appreciate any insight from those who have more knowledge on this area. Thanks, Alex [1]: https://github.com/apache/polaris/issues/3710
