Snowflake

Connect a Snowflake data warehouse to Agent Context. Agents can query your Snowflake tables using standard SQL.

Setup

1. Go to Agent Context in the dashboard
2. Click Add Source → Snowflake
3. Enter your account, warehouse, and credentials
4. Specify the table to connect
5. Click Test Connection to verify, then Save

Connection Parameters

Parameter	Required	Description
Account	Yes	Snowflake account identifier (e.g., account.region or orgname-accountname)
Warehouse	Yes	Compute warehouse to use for queries
Username	Yes	Snowflake user for authentication
Password	Yes	Password for the specified user
Table	Yes	Fully qualified table name: DATABASE.SCHEMA.TABLE

Authentication

Provide your Snowflake username and password in the setup form.

Key pair authentication and role selection are supported at the backend level but not yet exposed in the dashboard UI. Contact support if you need these options.

Table Reference Format

Tables use a three-part fully qualified name:

DATABASE.SCHEMA.TABLE

Examples:

• ANALYTICS.PUBLIC.CUSTOMERS
• RAW_DATA.STAGING.EVENTS
• PROD_DB.FINANCE.TRANSACTIONS

What Gets Discovered

When you connect a Snowflake table, Agent Context discovers:

• The table’s columns, types, and constraints
• Column-level metadata for schema exploration

Each connected table becomes individually queryable by agents via the context-lake catalog and context-lake query commands.

Troubleshooting

Issue	Fix
Account not found	Verify the account identifier format. Use account.region (e.g., xy12345.us-east-1) or the newer orgname-accountname format.
Authentication failed	Verify username and password. Check that the user account is not locked or expired.
Warehouse suspended	The specified warehouse may be suspended. Resume it in the Snowflake console or set it to auto-resume.
Table not found	Verify the fully qualified name (DB.SCHEMA.TABLE). Names are case-sensitive — Snowflake defaults to uppercase.
Permission denied	Ensure the user/role has SELECT access on the target table and USAGE on the database, schema, and warehouse.
