Configure Snowflake connection

Accessing the Snowflake Connector

Navigate to the Connectors Page from the main menu.
Select Add Storage and choose Snowflake from the list of available connectors.

Connection Settings

Connection name. Enter a unique name for this connection
Host. Specify the hostname or IP address of your Snowflake account. Follow the format accountname.snowflakecomputing.com.
Port. Port: Enter the port number. The default port for Snowflake is 443.
Username. Enter the username that will be used to connect to your Snowflake instance.
Password. Enter the password associated with the provided username.
Role. Specify the role that should be assumed when connecting to Snowflake. If left blank, the default role associated with the username will be used.

Schema (optional). Enter the schema name here to set a specific schema as default. You can leave this field blank or select another schema in the Source node in the Flow Designer.

Additional Parameters

By default, Tabula will create a new schema in the execution database when executing queries. If you have restricted access to the default database or are working within a shared Snowflake environment, you may need to specify alternative database and schema names. This is especially useful for shared Snowflake databases where multiple users or applications share the same resources.

Database. Specify an alternative database name if you cannot use the default execution database.
Schema. Specify an alternative schema name if you cannot use the default schema.
