Scalar and Batch Unity Catalog Python UDFs
GALast seen at this status: 2026-09-23·23d ago
Python functions registered and governed in Unity Catalog, as row-at-a-time scalar UDFs or batch UDFs, that run on all supported compute types. They can install custom dependencies and use Unity Catalog service credentials and secrets, and the earlier limit of five UDF calls per query no longer applies.
