By connecting Crisp with Snowflake, you can sync your distributor and retailer data securely to the cloud and integrate that information with your own internal systems.
Requirements
To create this connection you will need the following:
- Be the Account Admin of an active Snowflake account
- Locate your Snowflake identifier and cloud platform/region. Snowflake account identifiers are typically based on your organization and account name, but may be based on your account locator. For information on the formatting of account identifiers, see Snowflake Documentation > Account identifiers. To find your organization and account name, see Snowflake Help > Viewing the name of your organization and its accounts. To find your account locator, see Snowflake SQL reference > CURRENT_ACCOUNT.
