B imo, since Data Explorer focuses on metadata and data access, not on dashboards or visualizations.

Maybe B is the best fit here since Data Explorer definitely lets you browse metadata and data. I’m not 100% sure about changing permissions either, but it seems more likely than the other options. A sounds off because UPDATE queries are usually done in SQL editors, not the explorer. C and D feel more about dashboards and visualizations, which are different tools. E is unrelated. So, B feels like the most reasonable choice even if "change permissions" might be a bit of a stretch.

B imo, since Data Explorer is mainly for checking out metadata and data, and managing permissions fits that vibe better than creating dashboards or running updates.

Maybe D. Data Explorer is often described as a tool for navigating and visualizing data, not just viewing metadata. While it might not handle full dashboard creation like other parts of Databricks SQL, the ability to make and share visualizations seems like a core feature. So it might be more about quick visual insights that you can share rather than deep metadata edits. This makes D feel like a solid choice since it highlights the visualization aspect without stretching into full dashboard production or permission changes.

Makes sense to rule out anything about dashboards or updates since those feel like different tools. I’d go with B too because it fits the idea of Data Explorer being a place to browse and tweak metadata and permissions. B

I’m with the idea that Data Explorer isn’t really about creating dashboards (so probably not C or D). As for updates, running UPDATE queries seems more like something you’d do in a SQL editor, not Data Explorer—makes me doubt A. Also, connecting to third-party BI tools (E) feels like a broader integration feature, not tied directly to Data Explorer. So focusing on what Data Explorer actually handles, which is browsing data and metadata plus permission management, B looks like the best fit. Anyone think it might do more than just view and manage permissions though?

Option B sounds right since Data Explorer is mainly for looking at metadata, data, and managing permissions. Not sure about the others though.
