Manual deployment

You need an ACCOUNTADMIN user to follow this guide.

Create security integration

Create a custom security integration by running the following query. Replace {{origin}} with the domain and protocol your Snowboard installation is running and {{host_name}} with the Snowflake account name.

CREATE SECURITY INTEGRATION SNOWBOARD
                type = oauth
                enabled = true
                oauth_client = custom
                oauth_client_type='CONFIDENTIAL'
                OAUTH_ALLOW_NON_TLS_REDIRECT_URI = true
                oauth_redirect_uri='{{origin}}/api/auth/snowflake/callback/{{host_name}}';

Add data to Snowboard

Logged into Snowboard as admin user, click the Enable SSO Button on the corresponding account on the Snowboard settings page. You will get a warning that your user doesn't have correct rights to automatically enable SSO.

Enter the correct information from Snowflake by extracting the data from the following queries:

DESCRIBE SECURITY INTEGRATION SNOWBOARD;

This query conveys the data for:

• Authorization Endpoint

• Token Endpoint

• Redirect URI

SELECT  d:OAUTH_CLIENT_ID::text as OAUTH_CLIENT_ID, 
            d:OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET::text as OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET 
      FROM (SELECT parse_json(SYSTEM$SHOW_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRETS('SNOWBOARD')) as d);

This query conveys the data for:

• Client-ID

• Client Secret

After entering the correct information save the configuration by pressing the Save Button
