This Snap Pack is tested with JDBC driver version 3.16.0.
As of November 8, 2023, the Snowflake Snap Pack is bundled with the default Snowflake JDBC driver v3.16.0.
As of November 1, 2023, Snowflake instances hosted on Google Cloud must use Snowflake JDBC driver v3.13.25 or higher. If you are using the default drivers bundled with Snowflake or ELT Snaps, your pipelines are not affected. If your Snowflake instances hosted on Google Cloud use older JARs, you must update the client drivers. Learn more.
For support of all geospatial data types, we recommend that you use our custom JDBC driver. Contact support@snaplogic.com for details.

Latest
The Snowflake Snap Pack supports geospatial data types. As the Snowflake Snap Pack requires using our custom Snowflake JDBC driver for full support of all data types, contact support@snaplogic.com for details.
The Snowflake - Bulk Upsert Snap no longer supports values from an upstream input document in the Key columns field when the expression button is enabled. The value must remain constant throughout the Snap’s execution and now limits support for expressions to include only Pipeline parameters.
To avoid breaking your existing Pipelines that use a value from the input schema in the Key columns field, update the Snap settings to use an input value from Pipeline parameters instead.
The Snowflake Bulk Load Snap no longer displays the validation warning in the following cases:
When you configure the Validation Mode as NONE and Validation Errors Type as Do not show errors in the Snap, or
When Validation Mode is RETURN_n_ROWS, RETURN_ERRORS, or RETURN_ALL_ERRORS.

main18944
Stable
The Snowflake - Bulk Load Snap now routes the 403-Access Denied error to the error view (when the error view is enabled) when you do not have DeleteObject permission to delete the temporary files in the S3 bucket.
The Snap failed when the Preserve case sensitivity field was not selected and the column names in the input document and the target table were the same but the cases were different. Now, the Snap does not fail and loads the data correctly to the target table.
The Snap created a table when it did not exist with multiple columns in the target table when there were two input views, but the column name cases were different in both views. Now, the Snap creates the table from the metadata provided by the second input view and loads the data into the target table from the first input view.
The Snowflake Insert Snap now creates the target table only from the table metadata of the second input view when the following conditions are met:
The Create table if not present checkbox is selected.
The target table does not exist.
The table metadata is provided in the second input view.
November 2022
430patches18911

The Snowflake Select Snap now works as expected when the table name is dependent on an upstream input.
The Snap now routes the 403-Access Denied error to the error view (when the error view is enabled) when you do not have DeleteObject permission to delete the temporary files in the S3 bucket.
The Snap now checks for the expiration time whenever it receives a new access token for refreshing the token in Snowflake OAuth2 account.
The Snap successfully loads the data even when you deselect the Preserve case- sensitivity checkbox and the source and target column names are similar, but with different casing.
When the Snap has two input views, it creates the target table from the metadata provided by the second input view and loads the data into the target table from the first input view.
The Snowflake Select Snap now validates successfully even when you set the Table Name field with an expression.

429patches16458
Latest
Fixed the following issues with the Snaps that use Snowflake Accounts Key Pair Authentication.
The Snaps were not able to read the private keys provided as Pipeline parameters, because the key was malformed by replacing the line breaks with whitespace characters. Now, the private keys are properly formed and read when provided as Pipeline parameters.
The Snap displayed a Null Point Exception error when you pass an invalid key into the Private Key field like test. Now, the Snap displays a valid error message.
Fixed an issue with the Snaps due to an upgrade made to HikariCP that caused a conditional failure and prevented the downstream Snaps to supply the parameters to the stored procedure.
Fixed an issue with Snowflake Execute and Snowflake Select Snaps where the Snap displayed an exception error when the FLOAT or DOUBLE datatype column has the value as NaN (Not a Number). Now the output value is written as-is (NaN) for FLOAT or DOUBLE datatype column and does not display an exception.
Enhanced the following Snowflake Accounts with support for Key Pair Authentication.
The Snap skips AWS account validation if S3 Storage Integration property is provided.
The Snap skips the validate command if S3 Storage Integration property is not provided

4.20 Patch
db/snowflake8800
Latest
Certifies the Snowflake Snap Pack against JDBC Driver version 3.12.3. Snowflake Execute and Multi-Execute Snaps may break existing Pipelines if the JDBC Driver is updated to a newer version.
With the updated JDBC driver (version 3.12.3), the Snowflake Execute and Multi-Execute Snaps' output displays a Status of "-1" instead of "0" without the Message field upon successfully executing DDL statements. If your Pipelines use these Snaps and downstream Snaps use the Status field's value from these, you must modify the downstream Snaps to proceed on a status value of -1 instead of 0.
This change in the Snap behavior follows from the change introduced in the Snowflake JDBC driver in version 3.8.1: "Statement.getUpdateCount() and PreparedStatement.getUpdateCount() return the number of rows updated by DML statements. For all other types of statements, including queries, they return -1."
