CERTIFIED-DATA-ANALYST-ASSOCIATE Question #63: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

Which location can be used to determine the owner of a managed table?

Options

• AReview the Owner field in the table page using Catalog Explorer
• BReview the Owner field in the database page using Data Explorer
• CReview the Owner field in the schema page using Data Explorer
• DReview the Owner field in the table page using the SQL Editor

Explanation

Catalog Explorer is the dedicated UI tool in Databricks Unity Catalog for browsing and managing data assets, and its table detail page includes an Owner field that directly shows who owns a managed table - making option A correct.

Option B is wrong because Data Explorer is an older/different interface than Catalog Explorer, and ownership is a table-level attribute, not a database-level one. Option C is similarly wrong - even if Data Explorer were used, you'd need the table page, not the schema page, since ownership is assigned per object, not inherited from the schema view. Option D is wrong because the SQL Editor is a query execution environment, not a metadata management UI - it doesn't expose an Owner field in its interface.

Memory tip: Think "Catalog Explorer = Control panel for metadata" - it's the authoritative place to inspect, manage, and change ownership of Unity Catalog objects like tables, schemas, and catalogs.
