GitHub user dosubot[bot] added a comment to the discussion: Pass logged_in_user in superset to Databricks SQL
<!-- Greeting --> Hi @bhavishya123! I'm [Dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot) and I’m helping the superset team. <!-- Answer --> Superset does not currently support passing the logged_in_user to Databricks SQL for query execution out-of-the-box. The Databricks engine spec uses a static token-based connection model, always setting the username to "token" and authenticating with the provided access token. There are no built-in hooks or configuration options to dynamically substitute the logged_in_user in the connection URI or connect_args for Databricks connections, and the impersonation features present for other engines like Presto or Trino are not implemented for Databricks [reference](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset/db_engine_specs/databricks.py). Superset does have generic impersonation hooks and a new ENGINE_CONTEXT_MANAGER extension point that could, in theory, be customized to implement user-specific connection logic, but this would require custom development and is not available by default [reference](https://github.com/apache/superset/pull/30266). If you need this feature, it would require extending Superset’s Databricks engine spec or using the ENGINE_CONTEXT_MANAGER to inject user context at connection time, and ensuring Databricks can recognize and enforce RBAC based on that information. There is no built-in or documented workaround for this today. <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To reply, just mention [@dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot).* --- <sup>How did I do?
