Snowflake is an elastically scalable cloud data warehouse.

Connecting Savant to Snowflake requires some setup in both platforms. It's recommended to set up a service account with the correct permissions in Snowflake before configuring the Savant connector.

Features

Read data from Snowflake
Write data to Snowflake

Requirements

A Snowflake account with the appropriate permissions to create a user and warehouse for Fivetran
Savant role with the required permissions to warehouses, databases, schemas, and tables
Whitelist Savant IPs

Connection Methods:

Savant supports an OAuth connection to Snowflake. This document will provide a step by step guide to setup the connection.

OAuth

Step 1: Create an OAuth client in your Snowflake.

Login to Snowflake as an ACCOUNTADMIN.
Run the following statement to create a Savant role in Snowflake:

CREATE ROLE IF NOT EXISTS savant_role COMMENT = "Access to selected tables for Savant";

GRANT ROLE savant_role TO ROLE SYSADMIN; 

GRANT USAGE ON WAREHOUSE "<warehouse>" TO ROLE savant_role; 

GRANT USAGE ON DATABASE "<database>" TO ROLE savant_role; 

GRANT USAGE ON SCHEMA "<database>"."<schema>" 
TO ROLE savant_role; 

GRANT SELECT ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA "<database>"."<schema>" 
TO ROLE savant_role; 

GRANT SELECT ON FUTURE TABLES IN SCHEMA "<database>"."<schema>" 
TO ROLE savant_role; 

GRANT SELECT ON ALL VIEWS IN SCHEMA "<database>"."<schema>" 
TO ROLE savant_role; 

GRANT SELECT ON FUTURE VIEWS IN SCHEMA "<database>"."<schema>" 
TO ROLE savant_role;

Step 2: Update the statement below:

For EU region, change OAUTH_REDIRECT_URI to https://app-eu.savantlabs.io/api/callback
If you have a Snowflake network policy that blocks public IPs, make sure to whitelist Savant's IPs and add update the <network policy> value. Otherwise, remove the line.

CREATE SECURITY INTEGRATION SAVANT_CLIENT
TYPE = OAUTH
ENABLED = TRUE
OAUTH_CLIENT = CUSTOM
OAUTH_CLIENT_TYPE = 'CONFIDENTIAL'
OAUTH_REDIRECT_URI = 'https://app.savantlabs.io/api/callback'
OAUTH_ISSUE_REFRESH_TOKENS = TRUE
OAUTH_REFRESH_TOKEN_VALIDITY = 7776000
NETWORK_POLICY = '<network policy>'
;

Run the updated statement from above to create an integration.
Run the following statement to retrieve its client id and client secret:

SELECT SYSTEM$SHOW_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRETS( 'SAVANT_CLIENT' );

The result is a JSON document with one client id and two client secrets.
Write down the Client Id and one of the Secrets, which will be needed to setup the connection in Savant.

Step 3: Once you have configured the connection in Snowflake, adding the connection to Savant is simple.

Choose the OAuth connection option
Enter the Server you are connecting to (ex: https://123.us-region1/gcp.snowflakecomputing.com)
Enter Client Id from Snowflake (ex: oLOlP+yDErz8/H/vOpv4g5Gy=)
Enter your Client Secret from Snowflake
Enter savant_role in Role
Enter your Role, Warehouse and Database from Snowflake, or leave the fields blank opt to use the defaults.
Click Authenticate

Troubleshooting:

Ensure your CREATE SECURITY INTEGRATION statement is free of typos and that the OAUTH_REDIRECT_URI exactly matches what’s configured in Savant (including protocol, domain, and trailing slash).
Rerun SELECT SYSTEM$SHOW_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRETS('SAVANT_CLIENT'), copy one of the secrets exactly (no extra spaces), and re-enter it under Savant’s OAuth setup.
As System Admin, confirm savant_role has USAGE on the warehouse, database, and schema plus SELECT on all current and future tables/views.
On Snowflake, query LOGIN_HISTORY and QUERY_HISTORY for errors; on Savant, enable debug logging to capture HTTP response codes (e.g. 401, 403, 504) and error messages.
