Known Issues
The Asset catalog Edit metadata functionality in the Custom tab of task details has an issue. When editing, if you click Clear to remove an existing value and then click Cancel, the value is deleted instead of being retained as expected.
Workaround: Re-enter the cleared value and click Save.The average number of documents processed for pipelines that contain a BigQuery Execute Snap is being incorrectly reported as zero. This impacts both the Asset catalog and the Execution overview.
In the Asset catalog Pipelines tab, when you filter by the Path column, a search might not return all pipelines that match.
The Asset catalog Execution statistics tab for task and pipeline details currently displays no data.

Important Updates from Snowflake
Deprecated Drivers:
As of February 1, 2024, Snowflake has ceased support of older driver versions in compliance with its Support Policy. You must upgrade to the latest driver version to access important security, performance, and functionality improvements. Ensure that your Snowflake pipelines use the Snowflake JDBC Driver v3.13.27 or a higher version. Learn how to check your current driver version. The Snowflake Snap Pack is bundled with the 3.16.0 JDBC driver, but if you are using your own version, it may be deprecated in accordance with Snowflake Guidelines.
Security Policies:
Snowflake recently signed the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) Secure By Design Pledge. In line with CISA’s Secure By Design principles, Snowflake recently announced several security enhancements in their platform — most notably the general availability of Trust Center and a new Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) policy.
Effective October 2024, MFA will be enforced by default for all human users in any new Snowflake account. Service users (accounts designed for service-to-service communication) will not be subject to this MFA requirement.
Basic Authentication Accounts:
If you currently use Basic authentication to access Snowflake, we recommend one of the following:
Update your password to a maximum of 14 characters and a minimum of 8, and ensure it does not match any of the previous five passwords. Learn more.
Migrate to Key-Pair authentication: This method involves generating a public and private key pair, where the private key is securely stored and the public key is registered with your Snowflake account.
Migrate to OAuth2 authentication: This is a widely adopted standard for secure delegated access. It allows applications to obtain limited access to user accounts on an HTTP service, facilitating safer and more manageable authentication flows.
Implementing the above recommendations will secure your data and protect sensitive data, ensuring compliance with Snowflake's updated security policies. Learn more. For questions, contact support@snaplogic.com.
