Tracing is required - but I set it at 4 for best practice vs 3 - the others are not required. (Password isn't required when authenticating via externalbrowser).

These articles will help! How to Connect to Snowflake from Alteryx & Snowflake (alteryx.com). Most importantly you need the Snowflake driver installed (you can get this from Snowflake or the Alteryx download site) and you have the credentials to access Snowflake.
