Moving Oracle Blob to Snowflake Binary using BLOB Convert

Hi All,

Could use some suggestion.

 

I am attempting to transfer an Oracle table containing a BLOB column to Snowflake using BLOB Convert. However, upon migration, the datatype for this column appears as VARCHAR instead of the desired Binary, which is the equivalent of BLOB in Snowflake.

To address this issue, I have chosen the "Convert to Base64 encoded Binary Data" option within Blob Convert and connected the output to a Select tool. Unfortunately, the Select tool does not provide an option to convert the incoming data into Binary. How can I achieve the desired result of having the Snowflake column datatype as Binary instead of VARCHAR?

 

Thanks!
