Database Type - Snowflake

Just installed 5.4.4 with the 3.24.0 JDBC and 3.9.0 ODBC - both 32 and 64 bit.
Snowflake does not appear as a database type when configuring the database driver.
URL Template is configured as it was on 4.7.0. but now see the message - Validation is not available for this database type

Hi @db7494, am I correct in assuming that you are manually configuring snowflake with the manually installed 3.24 jdbc driver?

Have you tried installing the snowflake extension so you have an actual snowflake connector, or is there a reason for not using the extension?

I do see the snowflake database type on the “Register new database driver” dialog:

Is that the option you are referring to?

I don’t know for sure, but maybe that’s because I have the snowflake extension installed.

Did you upgrade from 4.7.0 to 5.4.4 or is this a fresh install?

Hello @db7494 ,

did you install the Snowflake extension. Do do so simply follow the instruction here.

The Snowflake extension comes with a ready to use JDBC driver so you do not need to install anything else.

I had to download/configure the extension .ZIP files. After installing Snowflake Integration extension, the database type appeared. I also found it was better with 5.4.4 to convert from the DB Connector to the Snowflake Connector.
