- Go to the Settings / Cloud Accounts view and click the plus button to add a cloud account.
- Select the Snowflake option.
- Enter a descriptive name for this integration in the Name input field.
Perform the Snowflake-specific inline instructions as they appear in the Add new cloud Account view:
Step 1: Select Data Access Controller - Select a cloud provider and choose the region of the DAC for the data discovery process.
Step 2: Enter Snowflake Connection Settings - Enter the Account name and then enter the Snowflake username that Satori should use to access your Snowflake account.
