# Set Up a Databricks Data Federation Connection

Set up a connection between AWS or Azure hosted Databricks and Data 360 to access data.

| User Permissions Needed               |                                                             |
| ------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| To create a connection in Data Cloud: | System Admin profile or Data Cloud Architect permission set |

Before you begin:

- Review [Data 360 IP Allowlist](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_data_cloud_ip_address_allowlist.htm&type=5), and update your Databricks allowlists.
- Databricks clusters must use Databricks Runtime 13.1 or later and in shared or single-user access mode.
- Make sure these compute and workspace requirements in Databricks are met: .
  - Workspace requirements - Query data on Databricks from Salesforce: None, Unity Catalog recommended.
  - Compute requirements:
    - Network connectivity from your Databricks Runtime cluster or SQL warehouse to Salesforce. For more information, see [Networking recommendations for Lakehouse Federation](https://docs.databricks.com/en/query-federation/networking.html).
    - Databricks clusters must use Databricks Runtime 13.1 or above and shared or single-user access mode.
    - SQL warehouses must be Pro or Serverless.
  - To set up connectivity for data federation, the account admin must have a Workspace admin role.
  - The Workspace admin must complete these setup tasks.

**note:** ClientID/ClientSecret authentication is only supported using Azure Databricks-managed [Service Principals](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/databricks/admin/users-groups/service-principals#databricks-and-microsoft-entra-id-service-principals). Microsoft Entra ID-managed principals are not supported.
