ai_transcribe function (Beta)
The ai_transcribe() SQL function transcribes an audio file into text. It returns the transcript as time-stamped segments, and labels each segment with a speaker when speaker diarization is enabled for your workspace. The output is a VARIANT value, so you can chain it into other AI Functions. This feature is in Beta . See ai_transcribe function .
OpenAI API mTLS and X.509 workload identity federation are GA
Mutual TLS and X.509 workload identity federation can be configured in the Platform console, with access governed by organization roles and permissions, enabling keyless authentication.
Zhipu AI GLM 5.3 now available as a Databricks-hosted model
Model Serving now supports GLM 5.3 as a Databricks-hosted model in supported US and Americas regions. This text-only mixture of experts (MoE) model supports a context window of up to 1,048,576 tokens, up to 65,536 output tokens, function calling, structured output, coding, agentic tool use, and always-on reasoning.
Restrict service principal OAuth secrets to specific API scopes
You can now restrict a service principal's OAuth secret to specific API scopes, such as sql or jobs , instead of all APIs. A token minted from a scoped secret can't exceed those scopes, which limits the impact of a leaked secret. See Authorize service principal access to Databricks with OAuth .
active_sessions autoscaling metric for TTS
Dedicated endpoint autoscaling now accepts active_sessions , which targets concurrent open client WebSocket sessions per replica on a TTS deployment ( AVERAGE_VALUE only). The default inflight_requests metric also covers TTS handlers, so HTTP TTS traffic can keep scaling without a policy change. See Configure autoscaling .
