Setup

Head to the warehouse configuration page inside Pylon and fill in your Snowflake credentials.

We recommend creating a new database and schema within your account to store Pylon data. For best practice in access control, we also recommend creating a new role with access to just that database, and finally granting that role to the authenticating user.

You’ll need the following to configure your Snowflake connection:

1

User

The username of the user who the connection will be on behalf of.

2

Password

The password of the user who the connection will be on behalf of.

3

Account

You can find your account identifier by using these instructions. The identifier will likely be in the form xxxxxx-xxxxxx.

The warehouse that is used to write data. If one is not specified, the default warehouse will be used.

5
