Improved authentication with OAuth 2.0 for Snowflake connector
Updates
- Choose between username/password and OAuth 2.0 when creating a Snowflake connection.
- Customers who use SSO login (instead of username/password) can now create Snowflake connections.
- Existing connection using username/password can continue to work without any disruption.
Benefits
- Improved compliance with OAuth 2.0 (token) compared to Username/Password.
- Tokens have an expiry time, making it less vulnerable.
- OAuth 2.0 connections with the Snowflake connector handle token refresh automatically, making it super easy to use.
