Snowflake Terraform Provider

⚠️ Please note: If you believe you have found a security issue, please responsibly disclose by contacting us at [email protected].

⚠️ Disclaimer: the project is still in the 0.x.x version, which means it’s still in the experimental phase (check Go module versioning for more details). It can be used in production but makes no stability or backward compatibility guarantees. We do not provide backward bug fixes and, therefore, always suggest using the newest version. We are providing only limited support for the provider; priorities will be assigned on a case-by-case basis.

Our main current goals are stabilization, addressing existing issues, and providing the missing features (prioritizing the GA features; supporting PrPr and PuPr features are not high priorities now).

With all that in mind, we aim to reach V1 with a stable, reliable, and functional provider. V1 will be free of all the above limitations.

Getting started

If you're still using the chanzuckerberg/snowflake source, see Upgrading from CZI Provider to upgrade to the current version.

Install the Snowflake Terraform provider by adding a requirement block and a provider block to your Terraform codebase:

terraform {
  required_providers {
    snowflake = {
      source  = "Snowflake-Labs/snowflake"
      version = "~> 0.61"
    }
  }
}

provider "snowflake" {
  account  = "abc12345" # the Snowflake account identifier
  user     = "johndoe"
  password = "v3ry$3cr3t"
  role     = "ACCOUNTADMIN"
}

For more information on provider configuration see the provider docs on the Terraform registry.

Don't forget to run terraform init and you're ready to go! 🚀

Start browsing the registry docs to find resources and data sources to use.

Additional debug logs for snowflake_grant_privileges_to_role resource

Set environment variable SF_TF_ADDITIONAL_DEBUG_LOGGING to a non-empty value. Additional logs will be visible with sf-tf-additional-debug prefix, e.g.:

2023/12/08 12:58:22.497078 sf-tf-additional-debug [DEBUG] Creating new client from db

Additional SQL Client configuration

Currently underlying sql gosnowflake driver is wrapped with instrumentedsql. In order to use raw gosnowflake driver, set environment variable SF_TF_NO_INSTRUMENTED_SQL to a non-empty value.

By default, the underlying driver is set to error level logging. It can be changed by setting driver_tracing field in the configuration to one of (from most to least verbose):

• trace
• debug
• info
• print
• warning
• error
• fatal
• panic
