# Create a Databricks File Federation Data Stream

Create a data stream to start the flow of data from your Databricks source to Data 360 .

| User Permissions Needed  |                      |
| ------------------------ | -------------------- |
| To create a data stream: | Data Cloud Architect |

Before you begin:

- Make sure that the Databricks File Federation connection is set up.
- Review [IP addresses](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_data_cloud_ip_address_allowlist.htm&type=5) to make sure that the Databricks connection has the necessary access.

1.  In Data Cloud, on the Data Streams tab, click **New**.

2.  Select Databricks File Federation as the source of the data stream, and click **Next**.

3.  From the menus, select the connection and database to use.

4.  Under **Schemas**, select the schema to use.

5.  From the Available Objects, select the objects that you want to include.

    **note:** You can't choose objects listed under In Use Objects.

6.  Click **Next**.

7.  Enter the object name and object API name. See [Data Lake Object Naming Standards](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_data_lake_object_naming.htm&type=5).

8.  Select the category to specify the type of data to ingest. See [Category](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_category.htm&type=5).

9.  Select a primary key to uniquely identify the incoming records. See [Primary Key](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_primary_key.htm&type=5).

10. Select the source fields you want to ingest and click **Next**.

    Fields with compatible data types are listed under Supported Fields. It's recommended to select all supported fields.

    **note:** Unsupported Fields lists the fields with data types that aren't supported in Data 360.

11. Select a data space. If you don't have multiple data spaces provisioned, select **Default**. For more information, see [Data Spaces](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_data_spaces.htm&type=5).

12. Click **Deploy**.
