# Databricks

UI Bakery allows you to easily connect to a Databricks SQL database with no need for additional layers like APIs or third-party services.

## Configuration

### Prerequisites

If your database is hosted behind a Firewall, you need to add our [IP addresses](/concepts/data-sources.md#whitelisting-ip-addresses) to the Firewall whitelist.

### Connecting the data source

Now, to connect your data source, follow the steps below:

1. On the **Data sources** page, click **Connect**, and select *Databricks* in the Data sources list.
2. Specify all the required credentials and click **Test connection**.
3. Once the connection is verified, click **Connect Datasource** to complete the setup.

UI Bakery will extract the database structure and store column types. This data will be used to suggest the proper [table columns and form field types](/concepts/components/work-with-components/field-types-and-types-recognition.md).

If you need to be able to override the default data source catalog with a custom value in the action, you can enable the **Allow override catalog name in action** setting in the *Data source connection* windo&#x77;**.** \
Once enabled, you will be able to specify a custom database when configuring an action. In case a database is not specified, the default data source database will be used.

## Usage

Once you have established the connection between UI Bakery and Databricks, you can access its data - load it and send it back.&#x20;

UI Bakery supports the [SQL Query](/reference/working-with-actions/sql-query.md) action step for this data source.
