databricks-genie-spaces-best-practices

Design, configure, curate, govern, monitor, and integrate Databricks AI/BI Genie Spaces — the natural-language-to-SQL surface over Unity Catalog. Covers space scoping, general instructions, parameterized example SQL, SQL functions, trusted assets, JOIN configuration, knowledge store, certified queries, benchmarks, monitoring tab, feedback loops, the Genie Conversation API, governance via Unity Catalog (row filters, column masks, embedded warehouse credentials), and sharing/permissions. Use whenever the user mentions Genie, Genie Space, AI/BI Genie, Databricks natural language analytics, text-to-SQL on Databricks, or asks to build/curate/troubleshoot/embed a Genie experience. Do NOT use for: AI/BI Dashboards (visual BI without natural language), Databricks Assistant (in-IDE coding companion), Mosaic AI Agent Framework (custom agent apps), generic text-to-SQL outside Databricks, or LLM RAG over unstructured documents (Genie operates on structured Unity Catalog data only).
