Snowflake Bulk Loader

It would be really helpful to have a bulk load 'output' tool to Snowflake.  This would be functionality similar to what is available with the Redshift bulk loader.

Currently it takes a reaaally long time to insert via ODBC or would require you to write a custom solution to get this to work.

 

This article explains the general steps but some of the manual steps outlined would have to be automated to arrive at a solution that is entirely encapsulated within a workflow.

I couldn’t agree more on having the connection be editable. I don’t know how many times I had to re-enter everything… At least 20 times.

As suggested, created a separate idea to track using the internal snowflake s3 stage. https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Ideas/Snowflake-Bulk-Loader-Utilize-built-in-Snowf...
