Write to Snowflake

To write data to Snowflake with Flux:

1. Import the sql package.

2. Pipe-forward data into sql.to() and provide the following parameters:

   • driverName: snowflake
   • dataSourceName: See data source name
   • table: Table to write to
   • batchSize: Number of parameters or columns that can be queued within each call to Exec (default is 10000)

import "sql"
  
data
    |> sql.to(
        driverName: "snowflake",
        dataSourceName: "user:password@account/db/exampleschema?warehouse=wh",
        table: "example_table",
    )

Snowflake data source name

The snowflake driver uses the following DSN syntaxes (also known as a connection string):

username[:password]@accountname/dbname/schemaname?param1=value1&paramN=valueN
username[:password]@accountname/dbname?param1=value1&paramN=valueN
username[:password]@hostname:port/dbname/schemaname?account=<your_account>&param1=value1&paramN=valueN

Flux to Snowflake data type conversion

sql.to() converts Flux data types to Snowflake data types.
