*Hi Hive Community,* I have a question regarding handling databases across multiple catalogs in HMS.
As per the HMS design, it accepts catalog names in all API calls, either by appending the database name with the catalog name using # or by setting the catalog name in the request object of _req methods as optional. Suppose an HMS client starts passing the catalog name in all API calls. Since the HMS schema ensures that the combination of database_name and catalog_name is unique in the DBS table, users can create the same database name in different catalogs (e.g., database1 in both catalog1 and catalog2). Given this setup, here's the scenario I need clarification on: If a user wants to retrieve all databases belonging to a specific catalog, is there an HMS API available for this? Currently, get_all_databases() returns a list of database names but doesn't differentiate which catalog they belong to. This becomes problematic when the same database name exists in different catalogs, as the HMS client won't be able to filter and associate each database with its respective catalog. Is there a recommended way or any API to get database details based on the catalog name so that HMS clients can filter and use the correct databases accordingly? Thanks for your help!
