Secure Output

When enabled, the output of this Databricks Notebook Activity will be securely stored and not visible in activity logs, ensuring sensitive data is protected. Disabling this option may expose sensitive output data in logs.

The value is applied as the secure-output option on the Databricks Notebook and Databricks Job activities in the generated Azure Data Factory pipelines. When the setting is blank (the default), the option is omitted from the generated activities and the Data Factory default (output not secured) applies.

When to Change This Setting

Enable it when notebook results can carry values that should not appear in Data Factory activity logging. Leave it blank or disabled when the output is not sensitive, so it remains visible for monitoring and troubleshooting.

Notes

  • This setting is part of the Databricks settings category.
  • This setting is blank by default; the generated activities then use the Data Factory default.
