Create an ingest token for Snowflake

To send Snowflake data to Observe, create an ingest token in Snowflake app/integration.

  • Click Applications in the navigation bar.
  • Find the Snowflake application and open it.
  • Click the Connections tab.
  • Click Get started to create a new connection to Observe and issue new token:
  • Give the token a name and provide a description (optional):
    • We recommend incorporating your organization and account identifiers into the token name (see ❄️Account identifiers).
    • For best flexibility, we recommend that create a different token for each account
  • Click Continue to create a token:
  • Copy the newly created token using Copy and save it somewhere safe until it is needed (later in these instructions).
  • Click Continue to close this prompt:
  • The Snowflake app/integration should show your token waiting for data:
