Summary
Request for a Domo connector that supports connecting from DOMO to Azure Databricks workspace using a Service Principal authentication (OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials flow using Client ID + Secret )
Problem Statement
PAT authentication is not viable for enterprise production environments because:
- PATs are tied to individual user accounts — a single point of failure if that user leaves or changes roles
- In particular government and regulated industries — explicitly prohibit PATs for system-to-system connections
- PATs cannot be cleanly rotated, audited, or integrated with enterprise secret management tools
Service Principal authentication is the Microsoft-recommended standard for all automated, non-interactive Azure Databricks workloads. Domo's current gap is blocking enterprise and government customers from achieving a compliant, production-grade connection entirely.
Request for Prioritisation
This is a compliance blocker, not a convenience feature. Customers in government, finance, and critical infrastructure sectors cannot use Domo with Azure Databricks at all under current constraints. Given the clear technical path, broad customer impact, and alignment with Microsoft's own security standards, we request this be fast-tracked into the upcoming roadmap and are happy to participate in any patch, beta or early access programme.
